RecapCorey Kiner rushed eight times for 55 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots’ Week 9 loss to the Packers.
Corey Kiner· RB
The Patriots lost Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) late in this one, but it’s still worth noting that nearly all of Kiner’s production came when the backups were on the field. Kiner punched in a nine-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter with the game well out of reach, and broke off a 20-yard run on the second-to-last play in regulation. While it’s possible Kiner finds himself in a lead role when the Patriots take on the Lions next week, fantasy managers will want to temper expectations for Week 10 if either Stevenson (knee) or TreVeyon Henderson (illness) is active.
