Dion Lewis leads backfield in Patriots' Week 7 win
New England Patriots running back Dion Lewis ran 13 times for 76 yards and caught one passes for 6 yards as his team beat the Atlanta Falcons 23-7 in Week 7.
What It Means:
Lewis started ahead of Mike Gillislee, received five more carries than him, and wound up leading the entire backfield in both snaps and touches. He's the best bet of New England's backs for a rushing touchdown moving forward, but this is a highly volatile situation. The Patriots host the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 8.
Lewis finished Week 7 with 8.7 FanDuel points and -0.59 Rushing Net Expected Points, per numberFire live.
