A benefactor of the injury carousel that is known as the New England Patriots, James White has assumed the role of the passing down back in the Patriots' backfield. And boy did he earn it in Week 13, going for 10 catches and 115 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets against the Eagles.

White clearly benefited from the game flow of the 21-point hole the Patriots were in in the second half, and that won't be the norm going forward. But even if game flow aided White's ridiculous numbers on Sunday, the Patriots don't shy away from throwing the ball even when they have big leads. In fact, when leading by seven or more points, the Patriots still throw the ball 59% of the time, good for third most in the league. That's money for White who gets his bread and butter in the passing game.

White added a ridiculous 13.15 Reception Net Expected Points (NEP) above expectation through his work in the air on Sunday, so it's likely he'll continue to inherit the Dion Lewis role for the rest of the season. Go get him if he's available in your league, particularly if it's a PPR league.
