Rhamondre Stevenson Expected to Reclaim Lead-Back Role When Healthy?
ESPN's Dan Graziano thinks that New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) will "reclaim his former roles as the Patriots' main between-the-tackles runner" when he's healthy. Stevenson injured his toe in the Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns and has missed the last two games. The Pats entered the week with hope that he'd return for Thursday night's game against the division-rival New York Jets, but as of Tuesday night, "it looked as if that return would likely have to wait until Week 12." Rookie TreVeyon Henderson went over 100 rushing yards and scored two touchdowns in the Week 10 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but the Patriots "still trust the veteran Stevenson more in certain spots and would like to continue using both of them." It's not great news for Henderson's fantasy managers, but Graziano also adds that New England could look to incorporate the rookie more once Stevenson is back.
