New England Patriots versatile running back James White made the Cincinnati Bengals bungle on Sunday on his way to 26.6 PPR points, the fourth-most among running backs on Sunday.

White only had 19 rushing yards on 7 carries but did his damage through the receiving game with 8 receptions for 47 yards and 2 touchdowns. White now has three straight games with double-digit scores in PPR leagues, where he is most valuable.

White's teammate Dion Lewis is eligible to come off of the PUP list this week, but the Patriots may take it slow with him, according to ESPN Boston.

Tom Brady has utilized pass-catching running backs throughout his career and will likely use White as long as Lewis remains out. White is scheduled to face the Steelers, who just allowed Jay Ajayi to rack up over 200 yards, in Week 7.
