Rhamondre Stevenson Dealing With Stomach Bug, Should Play Sunday

one year ago

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (illness) missed Friday's practice due to a stomach bug, according to Karen Guregian of MassLive. However, the expectation is that Stevenson will play Sunday versus Philadelphia. The Oklahoma product emerged as a strong dual-threat option last season, amassing 1,040 rushing and 421 receiving yards en route to finishing as the overall RB7 in PPR leagues. While the offseason addition of Ezekiel Elliott adds a wrinkle to this backfield, Stevenson is clearly still New England's lead back and should be treated as an RB2 in fantasy football.
