Rhamondre Stevenson Missing From Practice

11 months ago

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) is missing from practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Stevenson sprained his ankle in the Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and did not play in last Thursday's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's most likely to miss his second straight game in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs, so fantasy managers should keep him on their benches heading into this weekend. Ezekiel Elliott went off last Thursday against the Steelers as New England's lead back with Stevenson sidelined, carrying the ball a season-high 22 times for 68 yards and catching a season-high seven passes for 72 yards and his first receiving score of the year. It's unreasonable to expect Zeke to have a repeat performance against the Chiefs this weekend, but he will be a volume-based RB2 for fantasy managers.
