Burkhead in concussion protocol

By Jared Smola | Updated on Mon, Nov 28 2022 8:04 PM UTC

Texans RB Rex Burkhead is in the concussion protocol, HC Lovie Smith said Monday. Burkhead has totaled just 2 carries and 7 targets on 59 snaps over his last 5 games, so there will be very little fantasy impact if he's unable to play vs. the Browns this weekend.
