It feels like it’s been a while since the New England Patriots had players making a real impact for fantasy football owners.
It’s somewhat of a representation of New England’s lack of skill players at the receiver and tight end positions in recent seasons. Sure, Julian Edelman was almost always rostered, and the same could be said about running back Sony Michel and maybe James White, but the red-hot Patriots are putting both the NFL, and fantasy managers on notice recently.
With recency bias certainly playing a bit of a role, New England’s 45-7 thumping of the Cleveland Browns in Week 10 brought out season-best performances from tight end Hunter Henry, wideout Kendrick Bourne and running back Rhamondre Stevenson.
