Sony Michel

The Patriots official injury report lists Sony Michel (knee) as questionable for Week 9.

Michel has been trending in the right direction all week. Most expect him to play after practicing all week, albeit in a limited fashion. Should that come to pass, Michel is more of an RB2/3 until we have a clearer picture of how healthy he is. Of course, with the Patriots, he could come in to 20 touches and score two touchdowns, or get the start, carry it three times on the first drive, then watch James White from the sidelines for the rest of the game. If you own Michel, especially in a week with so many teams on bye, you are likely starting him, and if that's the case, you should have at least some confidence he will push for 15 touches and top-25 status.
