New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead did not practice on Thursday, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.
Burkhead has now missed two straight practices with a rib injury he suffered in Sunday's contest, putting his Week 3 availability in question for New England. If he can't make a go of it this week, James White will be in line for more work as Dion Lewis sees a few snaps in passing downs.
In his niche role, Burkhead is projected for 5.4 touches, 26.7 total yards and 0.23 touchdowns at a price of $5,400 this week.
