Sony Michel Could Be Held In Check Against Steelers
Dec. 13, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel could struggle to rack up rushing yards against the Steelers in Week 15. The rookie running back has 706 rushing yards this season with five rushing touchdowns but only one score over his last five games played. Michel will go up against a Steelers defense that is allowing the seventh fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs and have allowed only one 100-yard rusher all season. They have allowed eight touchdowns to running backs since Week 9 so Michel should see a healthy amount of touches in the red zone. But Michel will most likely need a touchdown to post 10-plus fantasy points in Week 15.
Michel mustered 57 rushing yards on 20 attempts during Sunday's 34-33 loss to the Dolphins.

Sony Michel Notches Only 2.8 Yards Per Carry In Week 14
Dec. 9, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball 20 times for 57 yards in the Patriots 34-33 loss to the Dolphins. Michel was charged with picking up the tough yards on drives but managed only 2.8 yards per carry. Michel is the unquestioned lead runner in the backfield but has to share time with teammate James White, who is more dangerous in the passing game. The Patriots running game struggled throughout and Michel was unable to break off a huge run. The rookie now has 705 rushing yards on the season through 10 games and will be a matchup-based fantasy option for the rest of the year.
Sony Michel Has Excellent Matchup Against Dolphins
Dec. 4, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will have a strong matchup against a Dolphins defense that is allowing the fifth most fantasy points to opposing backs this season. Miami has allowed four runners to post 100-plus rushing yards against them and eight running backs have totaled more than 100 yards from scrimmage this season. Michel has five touchdowns in nine games played this season and, by far, is the most talented player for the Patriots in the backfield. He has to battle for touches with veteran James White, and the now healthy Rex Burkhead, but Michel should still see the lion's share. Expect the Patriots to lean on the running game in this matchup, making Michel a solid RB2 play for Week 14.

Sony Michel Gains 63 Rushing Yards In Victory
Dec. 2, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball 17 times for 63 yards in the Patriots 24-10 win over the Vikings. The rookie running back added seven receiving yards in a game where the return of Rex Burkhead cut into Michel's playing time. Michel was workmanlike with his runs when given the opportunity, his longest run going for only eight yards. With Burkhead now in the backfield mix along with the pass-catching veteran James White, Michel's fantasy value will take a slight hit heading into Week 14.
Sony Michel Has Stiff Test Against Vikings
Nov. 29, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will face a tough test in Week 13 against a Vikings defense that has not allowed a 100-yard rusher this season. Minnesota is allowing the fifth fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs and have allowed only three rushing touchdowns all season. Michel bounced back last week in a huge way with a 133-yard, one-touchdown performance against the Jets and now has 586 rushing yards with five touchdowns on the season. When Michel is hitting the hole hard, the Patriots offense can be deadly. Michel will be an X-Factor for victory in Week 13 and fantasy owners may need a touchdown from the rookie to post a solid fantasy stat line.
Sony Michel Explodes For 145 Total Yards, Two Touchdowns
Nov. 25, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball 21 times for 133 yards, adding 13 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the Patriots 27-13 win over the Jets. Michel was the engine that made the Patriots offense run, consistently gashing the Jets and averaging 6.1 yards per carry. The Patriots have committed to running the football in recent weeks and Michel should benefit greatly moving forward if he can stay healthy. He did leave the field in the second half and appeared to be banged up but returned to the game and produced. The rookie running back will have a tough matchup next week against a fast, aggressive Vikings defense.

Sony Michel Should Get Back On Track Against Jets
Nov. 19, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel should be healthy coming off of the bye week heading into Week 12's matchup against the Jets. Michel suffered a knee injury that knocked him off course over the past month after a three-game stretch in early October where he racked up 316 rushing yards and four touchdowns. The rookie will go up against a Jets defense that is allowing the 14th most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season, including six touchdowns to the position over their last four games. The Patriots offense has been at its best this season when Michel is healthy and running hard. Michel will have solid RB2 value in Week 12.
Sony Michel Returns With 31 Rushing Yards In Loss
Nov. 11, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball 11 times for 31 yards in the Patriots 34-10 loss to the Titans. The rookie had missed the previous two games with a knee injury and was mostly ineffective on a day when the Patriots offense really struggled. Michel has posted some excellent fantasy stat-lines this season so brighter days should be ahead. As long as Michel can stay healthy, he should see the majority of the carries in the backfield moving forward for the Patriots. He will try and bounce back next week against the Jets and will be ranked as a RB2/3 with upside in most formats.

Good Chance Sony Michel Will Play On Sunday
Nov. 11, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (knee) is expected to suit up against the Titans on Sunday. The rookie has not played since Week 7 in the win over Chicago, and despite being a limited participant in practice throughout the week, he will likely be on a snap count in Week 10. As a result, fantasy managers should lessen their expectations this week as Michel will likely have a limited window to accumulate fantasy points outside of potential goal-line runs.

Sony Michel Has Tough Test If He Is Active In Week 10
Nov. 7, 2018
.New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (knee) was on the practice field Wednesday in hopes of returning to the lineup in Week 10 after missing two games. Before the injury, the rookie had enjoyed a three-game stretch where he posted 316 rushing yards and four touchdowns. His status will have to be monitored throughout the week but if Michel plays he will have a tough matchup against a Titans team that has not allowed more than 70 rushing yards to a single runner this season.
