Patriots RB James White was carted off the field today and has been ruled out with a hip injury for the remainder of the game against the Saints.

Fantasy Impact:

White saw one carry and one target (no receptions) before the injury. Hopefully White is ok. J.J. Taylor could stand to see more work as a result of White’s absence.
