Rhamondre Stevenson Set to Lead Backfield in Tough AFC Championship Matchup
So far in two postseason games, New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has been the preferred backfield option over rookie TreVeyon Henderson. Stevenson has 26 carries for 123 yards rushing while adding seven catches on eight targets for an additional 86 yards in wins over the Los Angeles Chargers and Houston Texans. Meanwhile, Henderson has only 52 scrimmage yards. The 27-year-old Stevenson had 16 carries for 70 yards and added four receptions for 11 yards in the Divisional Round win over Houston. He should continue to be a big part of the game plan in Sunday's AFC Championship tilt against the hosting Denver Broncos. It's a poor matchup on the road against one of the top-ranked defenses in the NFL. The Broncos D allowed the second-fewest rushing yards per game (91.1) during the regular season and the fewest half-PPR points per game allowed to RBs.
