Burkhead rushed 16 times for 47 yards and caught all six of his targets for 32 more yards in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Burkhead was unable to replicate his monster rushing performance (22-149-2) from a week ago, reverting to his inefficient ways (2.9 yards per carry) as the Texans' starting back. On the positive side of things, the veteran continued to see heavy usage with a team-high 22 touches. Burkhead is averaging 21 combined touches over his last three games, giving him a solid floor as a fantasy asset heading into next Sunday's matchup against the Titans.
