Fantasy Impact: The 32-year-old back has been far from a fantasy asset this season. However, he did manage to provide owners with some reasonable production last week, rushing for 57 yards and a touchdown and chipping in two catches for 14 yards. Other than last week’s performance, McGahee has one other touchdown on the year, hasn’t topped more than 72 yards rushing in a single game, has had a wildly inconsistent amount of carries and has seven total catches on the year. Last week’s moderate production was a nice surprise, but there weren’t likely too many owners who had him in their starting lineups to begin with.
McGahee doesn’t have a particularly imposing matchup in the Patriots. However, there still isn’t much of a reason to have faith in the 10-year veteran. He has slightly more value in standard leagues than PPR due to his goal-line carries, but is an extremely weak flex play.
