Rhamondre Stevenson
RB - New England Patriots
2024 Outlook
New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson has been placed on the team's injured reserve list, effectively ending his season.
Fantasy Impact
Stevenson had been working through an ankle injury and, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, was close to a return. However, given the Patriots' position as a franchise (in line for a top-five pick in the 2024 NFL Draft), it made more sense to sit their RB1 to let him heal for next season. He finished his junior season with 857 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns in 12 games. Ezekiel Elliott will take charge in Weeks 17 and 18.
Rhamondre Stevenson has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Fantasy Impact
Stevenson will be sidelined for at least one more game. Ezekiel Elliott should remain the workhorse in the Patriots backfield.
Rhamondre Stevenson was not at practice on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
It will be another week of Ezekiel Elliott leading the backfield for the Patriots. He is in the RB2 conversation with RB1 upside.
Rhamondre Stevenson, who has missed the past two games with an ankle injury, is still not at Patriots' practice ahead of the team's Week 16 clash with Denver.
Fantasy Impact
Stevenson will have two more opportunities to practice before getting a designation for SNF in Denver. If he is held out for a third straight game, it may be fair to wonder wether the eliminated Pats might just put him on the shelf for the remainder of 2023. If Stevenson is out or limited, veteran Ezekiel Elliott will again be asked to carry the load in the New England backfield.
Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 15's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
Stevenson will miss his second-straight game on Sunday thanks to an ankle injury. The exact timetable for his recovery is unclear as of now, and it seems like the Patriots have no reasons to hurry him back onto the field with them already out of playoff contention. Ezekiel Elliot will continue to get the bulk of the work in his absence and could be sneaky good again in Week 15.
