New England's Rhamondre Stevenson reportedly practicing in 'James White role'
According to Chris Mason, New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson reportedly was "repping in the James White role" during the team's two minute drill practice.
What It Means:
After James White announced his retirement, it appears Stevenson is next in line to inherit New England's pass catching role. With a recent endorsement from head coach Bill Belichick about his pass blocking as well, the 24-year old's average draft position in 12-team point per reception leagues (via Fantasy Football Calculator) in the eighth round could easily see a surge with all the recent hype surrounding the second-year running back.
Stevenson's current 2022 yearly projection includes 198.9 rushing attempts for 856.1 yards and 6.4 touchdowns and 35.8 receptions for 261.5 yards and 1.5 touchdowns. According to numberFire's season-long rankings, Stevenson stands as our RB27 with a 156.3 fantasy point expectation.
