.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.

.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.

.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.

Michel carried 17 times for 63 yards and caught one pass for another seven yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Vikings.

.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.

.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.

.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.

.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.

.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.

.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.

Before the injury, the rookie had enjoyed a three-game stretch where he posted 316 rushing yards and four touchdowns.

.New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee), who has missed the last two games with a sprained MCL, is likely to return and play in Week 10 against the Titans, according to a source. However, he'll need a good week of practice without any setbacks in order to be cleared. Keep a close eye on Michel's practice statuses this week, but it looks like you'll be able to plug him back into your fantasy lineups as an RB2 this weekend. His return will limit James White's upside, but he's still at least a strong RB2 choice, especially in PPR leagues.

.New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. While Michel could end up sitting out for a second straight game after spraining his MCL in Week 7, it at least puts him on track to be able to return on Sunday night against the Packers. If he does return, Michel will be back firmly on the RB2 map in a potential shootout. James White would still be a strong RB2 play, especially in PPR leagues, but the return of Michel would inevitably cut into his workload.

Michel was never expected to play after spraining his MCL in Week 7, but he could return in Week 9 if he continues to heal. Cannon's absence is a downgrade for the team's running game, but it's unlikely to matter against Buffalo, where James White will be an RB1. Expect Kenjon Barner to work as the backup in what should be an easy win for New England.
