News and Notes:

Tuttle’s Take:

The biggest DFS impact in this game is the announcement that Rex Burkhead was placed on IR with a neck injury. Bill Belichick already looked determined to get first-round pick Sony Michel involved in the offense in Week 3 as Michel carried the ball 14 times in a negative game script. Michel was also targeted three times, although James White remains the obvious pass catching back. The Patriots are 7.5-point home favorites with a 27.5 implied team total and Michel is only $4,500 on DraftKings and $5,900 on FanDuel. I won’t go as far as saying Michel is a “lock” but you can still consider him a core play, even though I still have him ranked behind both Alvin Kamara and Giovani Bernard.
