Patriots' Rex Burkhead (neck) placed on Injured Reserve

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (neck) was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Burkhead was forced to leave Week 3's game with a neck injury and will now miss at least the next eight weeks. James White and Sony Michel will take over as the Patriots' lead backs in Week 4 against the Miami Dolphins.

Our models project White and Michel for 8.4 and 8.0 FanDuel points respectively in Week 4.
