Stevenson saw fewer opportunities last week, with just six carries and a fumble, which led to less than one fantasy point. However, the drastic drop in usage was likely an outlier, as Stevenson had been a workhorse in the first two games of the season, seeing over 20 carries in each.
His role as the lead back remains intact, and the Patriots’ coaching staff could lean heavily on him to control the tempo and keep the 49ers’ potent offense off the field. Stevenson will also still be used in the passing game.
I love this breakdown of Rhamondre Stevenson by Coach Belichick. Belichick also spends a minute on a former Patriot that Mondre reminds him of.
Additionally, while the 49ers' defense is known for its strong run-stopping ability, Stevenson’s dual-threat capability as a pass-catcher could provide him extra value.
San Francisco has allowed running backs to make plays in the receiving game, and Stevenson has proven he can contribute as a reliable target out of the backfield.
With his versatility and likelihood to see a return to higher volume, Stevenson presents a solid starting option, even in a tough matchup. Fantasy managers could view him as a solid RB2 option this week.

Arizona Cardinals running back Michael Carter also stands to benefit workload-wise since […]
The running back position is quite interesting in championship week. Any starting RB as well as a handful of RB2s should be considered for starting lineups. Even the "lower-tier" starting RBs can be quite valuable for fantasy teams. We just saw Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard, who was one of the biggest draft busts […]
