Kyle Williams Fantasy Overview

Patriots QB Drake Maye made the most of limited passing volume in Sunday’s win over Miami, completing 16 of 20 attempts for 199 yards and 2 TDs. He also found the end zone as a runner for the third time in his past four outings.

Patriots WR A.J. Brown (knee, ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Dolphins. He didn't practice on Thursday or Friday after his knee "flared up," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Just wasn't able to to be able to practice or finish practice on Wednesday, and so we continue to treat him, and then we'll see where he is tomorrow," HC Mike Vrabel said Friday. We'll see if Brown makes the trip to Miami on Saturday. He'll obviously carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups if he does suit up this weekend. Browns' absence would leave Demario Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Efton Chism as New England's top 3 WRs.

Patriots WR A.J. Brown missed practice on Thursday with a knee issue that "flared up," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Brown has a long history of knee trouble and was reportedly flagged with a degenerative condition this offseason by the Rams, who were interested in trading for him. Brown's status for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins is now "up in the air," Rapoport adds. His absence would leave Demario Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Efton Chism as New England's top 3 WRs. We'll keep you updated on Brown leading up to kickoff.

The Patriots placed WR Romeo Doubs on IR with the shoulder injury he suffered in the Week 6 win over the Jets. We don't have any further details on Doubs' injury, but he's out at least the next 4 games. Doubs can be dropped in most redraft fantasy leagues. His absence leaves A.J. Brown and Demario Douglas as New England's top 2 WRs, with Efton Chism and Kyle Williams behind them. WR Mack Hollins (calf) is eligible to come off IR in Week 9.
