News

  • Finishes with 1,461 scrimmage yards

    Stevenson rushed six times for 54 yards and caught five of six targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 35-23 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Stevenson was far more effective than Damien Harris (13 carries for 48 yards), yet Harris got more rushing attempts in this must-win game. New England was eliminated from playoff contention with the loss. Stevenson's success in a workhorse role while Harris was out helped the second-year running back post 1,040 rushing yards and 421 receiving yards, along with six scrimmage touchdowns on 279 touches. Harris is set to be a free agent in 2023, so Stevenson could be in line for a substantial bump…read more

  • Limited to 10 touches in win

    Stevenson rushed eight times for 42 yards and brought in two of four targets for nine yards in the Patriots' 23-21 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Analysis: Stevenson paced the Patriots' backfield in rushing yards on the afternoon, but returning position mate Damien Harris outpaced him by one carry, and more surprisingly, one catch as well. Stevenson is slated to work in a timeshare with Harris again in a key Week 18 divisional road matchup against the Bills that will help decide New England's playoff fate.

  • Suits up Sunday

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Stevenson approached the contest listed as questionable after practicing in a limited fashion this past week, but he'll continue to play through an ankle issue he's managed over the last couple of games and is thus in line to maintain his key role in the Patriots' backfield versus Miami. While the 6-foot, 230-pounder could lose some touches to Damien Harris (who is back in the mix Sunday following a four-game absence), barring any in-game setbacks, Stevenson should still log enough carries and…read more

  • Slated to play Sunday

    Stevenson (ankle) is in line to suit up for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Stevenson has been tending to an ankle injury since a Week 14 win at Arizona, but he continued to lead the Patriots backfield the last two contests en route to 36 touches for 201 yards from scrimmage and a rushing TD. This week, he was limited in practice Wednesday through Friday and was tagged as questionable for Week 17 action, but it appears as if he'll be available Sunday for a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If he's active, Stevenson will be welcoming back fellow RB Damien Harris (thigh/personal),…read more

  • Listed as questionable for Sunday

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: It'd be a surprise if Stevenson sat out Sunday's game, though his status still is worth tracking ahead of New England's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Assuming he's able to play, Stevenson would figure to continue to handle a key role in the Patriots' Week 17 backfield, though he could lose some touches to Damien Harris (thigh/personal), who is set to return to from a four-game absence this weekend.

  • Another limited practice

    Stevenson (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, fellow running back Damien Harris, who has been limited at practice of late due to a thigh issue, missed Thursday's session due to a personal matter. Friday's injury report will reveal added context with regard to the duo's status for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, but chances are that both Stevenson and Harris end up officially listed as 'questionable' for Week 17 action.

  • Limited at practice Wednesday

    Stevenson (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Fellow running back Damien Harris (thigh) was also a limited participant, but given that Stevenson has been able to play through his ankle issue of late, he most likely had his reps capped Wednesday for maintenance-related reasons. Harris, on the other hand, hasn't seen game action since Week 12. So long as he's able to continue practicing in some fashion Thursday and Friday, Stevenson should be in good shape to play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins, though he could carry a designation…read more

  • Poor all-around showing in loss

    Stevenson rushed 13 times for 30 yards and brought in two of five targets for three yards in the Patriots' 22-18 loss to the Bengals on Saturday. He also committed two fumbles, losing one.

    Analysis: Stevenson overcome his questionable designation due to an ankle injury, but he ultimately came up small for both the Patriots and fantasy managers in a critical spot. Stevenson was stymied by the Bengals' tough run defense consistently, and his fumble on Cincinnati's eight-yard line with under a minute remaining helped make New England's ultimately unsuccessful comeback attempt that much more difficult. Stevenson could be rejoined by backfield mate Damien Harris (thigh) for a Week 17 home…read more

  • Suits up Saturday

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as active for Saturday's game against the Bengals.

    Analysis: Stevenson was listed as questionable ahead of this past Sunday's loss to the Raiders but suited up and recorded 19 carries for 172 yards and a touchdown and two catches for minus-4 yards. He'll continue to play through his ankle issue Saturday, and barring any in-game setbacks, he'll continue to log the bulk of the work in a New England backfield that's still without Damien Harris (thigh), with rookies Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris available to provide support.

  • Likely to face Bengals

    Stevenson (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bengals, is likely to play in the contest, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

    Analysis: While Stevenson appears to be trending toward being available in Week 16, Rapoport adds that Damien Harris (thigh) is viewed as more of a game-time decision. Either way, the status of the two running backs will be determined before the first wave of games Saturday, with the Patriots kicking off at 1 p.m. ET.

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bengals after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: The running back's ankle issue led to him being listed as questionable ahead of this past Sunday's loss to the Raiders, but Stevenson suited up and recorded 19 carries for 172 yards and a touchdown and two catches for minus-4 yards. Official confirmation of his Week 16 availability will arrive when inactives are posted in advance of Saturday's 1:00 ET kickoff, but as long as Stevenson is a go, he'll see his share of touches versus Cincinnati, though it's possible that the potential return of…read more

  • Logs limited practice

    Stevenson (ankle) was listed as a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Stevenson's ankle injury had him listed as questionable ahead of this past Sunday's contest against the Raiders, but he played through the issue, racking up 19 carries for 172 yards and a touchdown and two catches for minus-4 yards. With no reported setbacks since then, Stevenson's limitations this week could be maintenance-related, though the possibility exists that both he and fellow back Damien Harris (thigh) approach Saturday's game against the Bengals listed as questionable.

  • Listed on injury report again

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report estimate.

    Analysis: Stevenson played through the injury and ran for 172 yards in Sunday's loss to the Raiders, bouncing back quickly after the ankle sprain forced him from a Monday night win over the Cardinals six days earlier. He'll likely be out there and leading the New England rushing attack this Saturday in a trickier matchup with the Bengals.

  • Huge performance against Raiders

    Stevenson carries the ball 19 times for 172 yards and a touchdown and caught two of three targets for minus-4 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: The second-year back set a new career high in rushing yards for a game, topping the 161 yards he racked up against the Lions in Week 5 of this season, and Stevenson's 34-yard TD run late in the fourth quarter gave the Patriots a 24-17 lead, seemingly setting the team up for a win before a disastrous final minute. Stevenson appeared to be completely over the ankle injury that limited him last week in Arizona, but he gets a tough matchup in Week 16 against a Bengals defense that has stifled the…read more

    Analysis: Stevenson, who didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, returned to a limited session Friday and will give it a go Sunday, though it remains to be seen how close to a full workload he'll see after being limited to 13 snaps this past Monday against the Cardinals due to an ankle injury. In any case, with Damien Harris (thigh) inactive, the Patriots will take all they can get from their leading rusher in Week 15, with rookies Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris on hand to provide support in the event…read more

  • Game-time call, trending well

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as questionable and is considered a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's contest against the Raiders, though he has a "good chance" at suiting up, a source tells Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

    Analysis: Though Stevenson looks to be trending in the right direction for the Week 15 contest, his status will ultimately be determined by a pregame workout before the Patriots make a call on his status when the team releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. The running back's ankle injury limited him to just 13 snaps in the Patriots' Week 14 win over the Cardinals. Meanwhile, Damien Harris (thigh) has been downgraded to out versus the Raiders, so Stevenson may not face…read more

    Stevenson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: After not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, Stevenson logged a limited session Friday, which gives him a chance to play versus Las Vegas. Fellow running back Damien Harris (thigh) is also questionable after practicing in a limited fashion all week. The duo's status is thus worth monitoring ahead of Sunday's 4:05 ET kickoff, and if either of the Patriots' top two backs end up out or limited this weekend, rookies Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris would be called upon to log added touches as they did…read more

    Stevenson (ankle) was present for the media-access portion of practice Friday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Stevenson logged 'DNPs' Wednesday and Thursday, but his presence at practice Friday offers hope that the running back could potentially play Sunday against the Raiders. The Patriots' upcoming injury report is slated to add further context with regard to the Week 15 playing prospects of both Stevenson and fellow running back Damien Harris (thigh).

    Stevenson (ankle) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site notes that Damien Harris (thigh) -- who was limited Wednesday -- practiced once again Thursday. With that in mind, Harris appears closer to playing Sunday against the Raiders than Stevenson, though that narrative could potentially shift based on what transpires during Friday's session.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Stevenson (ankle) wasn't spotted at practice Wednesday, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: An ankle injury limited Stevenson to just 13 snaps in Monday's win over the Cardinals, and the running back's absence from practice Wednesday clouds his status for this weekend's game against the Raiders. With Damien Harris dealing with a thigh issue, rookies Kevin Harris and Pierre Strong are currently the Patriots' healthiest backfield options.

    Stevenson has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Cardinals.

    Stevenson (ankle) went to the locker room late in the first half after reentering Monday's game against the Cardinals, Jeremy Grant Schnell of Arizona Sports reports.

    Analysis: Stevenson didn't look fully healthy after coming back in for a few plays, so he'll get additional treatment for the ankle injury he suffered earlier in the game. If he's unable to return again, Stevenson will finish with three carries for eight yards and two catches on three targets for two yards.

    Analysis: Stevenson wasn't sidelined long, but Kevin Harris rumbled in for a 14-yard touchdown while Stevenson was getting his ankle checked out on the sideline. New England likely will go run-heavy for the rest of the game with its top two wide receivers Jakobi Meyers (concussion) and DeVante Parker (head) both sidelined.

    Analysis: Both Stevenson and wide receiver DeVante Parker (head) are questionable to return, while the Cardinals lost quarterback Kyler Murray to a non-contact knee injury, all in the first quarter. With Damien Harris (thigh) inactive, the Patriots are down to Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris in the backfield.

    With Damien Harris (thigh) inactive, Stevenson will continue to lead the Patriots backfield Monday night against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Harris also was unavailable for the Patriots' Week 13 loss to the Bills, a contest in which Stevenson recorded a 98 percent snap share, while carrying 10 times for 54 yards and catching six of his team-high eight targets for 24 yards. On Monday, Stevenson once again should handle the bulk of the team's backfield touches, with Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris in reserve, a context that puts Stevenson in a position to put up fantasy-worthy numbers versus an Arizona defense that is allowing an…read more

    Stevenson rushed 10 times for 54 yards and brought in six of eight targets for 24 yards in the Patriots' 24-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    Analysis: Stevenson was in line for an expanded workload with Damien Harris (thigh) inactive, but that never quite materialized thanks to the Bills building a 21-7 lead by halftime. The second-year pro still had a robust presence in the passing game as has recently been the norm, posting at least six catches for the third straight game and fifth time in the last six contests overall.

  • Set up for big workload again

    Stevenson appears poised to serve as the Patriots' clear lead back on early downs and passing downs with Damien Harris (thigh) ruled out for Thursday's game against Buffalo.

    Analysis: Stevenson has been the lead back even when Harris is healthy, but the second-year pro has seen even more work when his teammate is out, averaging 15.4 carries and 6.4 targets in the five games Harris has missed or left early with an injury. The Bills present a tough matchup, but Stevenson's workload projection is among the best of all running backs for Week 13, and his involvement as a pass catcher keeps him somewhat protected against the game-script concerns that often plague bigger backs.

  • Busy day as receiver Thursday

    Stevenson rushed seven times for 36 yards and secured nine of 10 targets for 76 yards in the Patriots' 33-26 loss to the Vikings on Thursday night.

    Analysis: Stevenson finished the night as the team leader in receptions and targets while checking in second in receiving yardage. Both the catch and yardage totals were also career highs for the second-year back, who was a clear beneficiary of the back-and-forth nature of the contest. Stevenson's receiving work has seen a massive uptick in recent contests, as he now has at least six catches in four of his last five games.

  • Racks up 82 scrimmage yards

    Stevenson rushed 15 times for 26 yards and caught all six of his targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Stevenson was out-gained 65-26 on the ground by Damien Harris, but the former led the team in receiving yards and had a 21-10 edge in touches over Harris, maintaining his role as the top option in New England's backfield. With the score tied at three late in the third quarter, Stevenson was bottled up for no gain on a 4th-and-3 rushing attempt, which was emblematic of his struggles en route to notching a season-low 1.7 yards per rushing attempt against the stout Jets front. Stevenson should…read more

  • Tallies receiving score

    Stevenson rushed the ball 15 times for 60 yards in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Colts. He added three receptions on seven targets for 10 yards and a touchdown.

    Analysis: Stevenson took on the majority of the work out of the backfield with Damien Harris (illness) sidelined. However, he had a mediocre game from an efficiency perspective and also sat for the majority of the fourth quarter with the Patriots in control of the game. The highlight of Stevenson's performance came in the middle of the second quarter when he hauled in a three-yard touchdown pass from Mac Jones. While his performance was a touch underwhelming, Stevenson has at least 15 carries in four of…read more

  • Slated to see expanded role Sunday

    With Damien Harris (illness) inactive, Stevenson is in line for an expanded workload Sunday against the Colts, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: When Harris was sidelined in Week 6, Stevenson was on the field for 60 of a possible 70 snaps on offense en route to rushing 19 times for 76 yards and two TDs, whole adding four catches on five targets for 15 yards. This time around, Stevenson once again figures to be busy against an Indianapolis defense that is allowing an average of 120 rushing yards per game, while J.J. Taylor and Pierre Strong are available to work in complementary roles.

  • Tops 140 scrimmage yards in win

    Stevenson rushed 16 times for 71 yards and caught seven of eight targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Stevenson led the Patriots in both rushing and receiving yards, notably outperforming Damien Harris (11 carries for 37 yards). A Harris hamstring injury earlier this season opened the door for Stevenson to take over the lead role, and the second-year running back hasn't relinquished it since, even with Harris back in the fold. Stevenson has rushed for at least 66 yards in five of his last six games heading into a Week 9 visit from the Colts.

  • Remains Patriots' lead back

    Stevenson rushed the ball 11 times for 39 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 33-14 loss to the Bears. He added eight receptions for 59 yards.

    Analysis: Stevenson accounted for 11 of the team's 14 carries by running backs, despite the return of Damien Harris. Game script may have played a role in the backfield split, as the Patriots surprisingly trailed for the entire second half. However, Stevenson also gave the team no reason to shift work elsewhere, as he accounted for three plays of 10 or more yards -- all of which came on receptions. However, Stevenson also made an impact on the ground, tallying one of New England's two touchdowns with a…read more

    Stevenson rushed 19 times for 76 yards and two touchdowns and brought in four of five targets for 15 yards in the Patriots' 38-15 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Analysis: Stevenson didn't see quite as much work as may have been expected with Damien Harris (hamstring) out once again, but game script didn't completely turn in the rushing attack's favor until the fourth quarter. Stevenson still saw a healthy amount of touches when factoring in his work in the passing game, and the second-year back also delivered nicely for fantasy managers with touchdown runs of 31 and six yards in the second and fourth quarters, respectively. Stevenson now has 237 rushing yards…read more

    With Damien Harris (hamstring) inactive, Stevenson is in line to lead the Patriots' rushing corps Sunday against the Browns, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Rookies Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris are available to handle complementary work, but look for Stevenson to log a heavy workload in Harris' absence Sunday. With Bailey Zappe making his second straight start at QB, Stevenson figures to be a focal point of the Patriots offense versus Cleveland, a context that boosts his Week 6 fantasy upside.

  • Expected to see expanded role

    Stevenson appears poised see an expanded role in the coming weeks with Damien Harris in line to miss time with a hamstring injury, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: Through the first four weeks of the season, Harris and Stevenson worked in a timeshare, but with the former limited to just six snaps in Week 5, Stevenson parlayed 54 snaps into 25 carries for a career-high 161 yards, to go along with two catches for 14 yards. Looking ahead to this weekend's game against the Browns, Stevenson figures to handle the bulk of New England's early-down work as well as contribute as a pass catcher, with some combo of Pierre Strong and practice-squad members J.J.…read more

  • Career-best effort in win

    Stevenson rushed 25 times for 161 yards and secured both targets for 14 yards in the Patriots' 29-0 win over the Lions on Sunday. He also recovered a fumble.

    Analysis: Stevenson didn't get into the end zone, but that was about the only blemish on his otherwise stellar afternoon. The second-year back's career day was partly made possible by the early exit of backfield mate Damien Harris, who left the game with a hamstring injury in the first half. Stevenson proved more than capable of carrying the load, with a 49-yard run in the first quarter serving as his longest play of the day. Stevenson only got stronger as the game went on, accruing 92 of his yards after…read more

  • Another productive day

    Stevenson rushed 14 times for 66 yards and caught four of five targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: Stevenson and teammate Damien Harris both ran well Sunday, with the latter leading the team with 18 carries for 86 yards and a score. For his part, Stevenson topped 4.5 yards per rush for the third straight game, and with the help of a few catches, he's now surpassed 85 scrimmage yards in consecutive outings. Whether Mac Jones (ankle), Brian Hoyer (head) or rookie Bailey Zappe plays quarterback in Week 5 versus the Lions, Stevenson should remain a regular contributor out of the backfield.

  • Paces backfield in loss

    Stevenson rushed 12 times for 73 yards and a touchdown and secured four of five targets for 28 yards in the Patriots' 37-26 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

    Analysis: Stevenson had logged a modest 17 combined carries over the first two games, but he outpaced Damien Harris by one rush attempt Sunday and was impressively efficient. Stevenson also paid his first visit to the end zone this season with a one-yard run early in the fourth quarter and produced season-high numbers across the board in the passing game, making it a fruitful fantasy performance overall. It remains to be seen if Stevenson will once again serve as the primary back in a Week 4 road date…read more

  • Effective in reserve role

    Stevenson ran for 47 yards on nine carries against Pittsburgh on Sunday, adding a four-yard catch on two targets.

    Analysis: Stevenson is a capable back and one who could probably handle a bigger workload, but Damien Harris (15 carries, two targets) functioned as the lead runner in this one. So long as Harris is in the way it might be difficult for Stevenson to fully break out, though the two are capable of coexisting to some extent.

  • Totals nine touches in Week 1 loss

    Stevenson rushed eight times for 25 yards and caught both of his targets for two yards in Sunday's 20-7 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Rather than featuring Stevenson in the passing game following James White's retirement, the Patriots instead turned to Ty Montgomery, who scored the team's only touchdown from six yards out on one of his four targets. Stevenson's in a 50/50 platoon with Damien Harris on early downs, while Montgomery's locked in as the top backfield option in passing situations heading into the Patriots' Week 2 trip to Pittsburgh.

  • Could see more targets early on

    Stevenson should get more work on passing downs if Ty Montgomery misses time with an ankle injury, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Montgomery emerged as the favorite for James White's old role, but it may now fall to Stevenson, at least temporarily, in addition to his normal work splitting carries with Damien Harris (undisclosed). The Patriots also might consider rookie Pierre Strong or a veteran free agent for the role, and it isn't yet clear how much time Montgomery might miss.

Stevenson, however, would offer more of a rushing threat, and his large frame might also make him a superior blocker once he's more comfortable with pass protection.

    Analysis: He added eight carries for 27 yards and four receptions for 33 yards in last weekend's blowout loss to the Bills in the wild-card round.

The majority of his production did come with the game out of reach, though he still managed long receptions of 15 and 10 yards while matching his career high with four receptions.

    Analysis: He wound up finishing third in the Patriots' backfield in touches behind Damien Harris (15) and Brandon Bolden (nine) after missing a large part of the middle of the game with a head injury, but Stevenson was still very productive on the ground with the workload he did get. Assuming the injury isn't serious, he should be more involved in the offense Saturday in the wild-card round against the Bills, a defense he ran for 78 yards against on 24 carries in their first meeting this season.

Stevenson got into the end zone from one and six yards out in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, on his way to a career-high rushing yardage total.

It was a disappointing performance for Stevenson after the rookie had topped 60 rushing yards the last four times he saw double-digit carries.

    Analysis: The Cleveland run defense had played well before this game, so it's impressive that the rookie fourth-round pick was able to carve out consistent yardage from start to finish in the 45-7 blowout victory. Stevenson might have played well enough to force more of a workload split with incumbent starter Damien Harris (concussion), who sat out Sunday.

Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor are next up for touches out of New England's backfield if Stevenson and Harris are out this weekend.

  • Not practicing Thursday

    Stevenson (concussion) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Ryan Hannable of WEEI.com reports.

    Analysis: Lead back Damien Harris was sidelined as well, as both he and Stevenson work their way through the NFL's concussion protocol. What Stevenson is able to do at Friday's practice will be key with regard to his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Browns. For the time being Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor are the Patriots' top healthy backfield options.

  • Misses Wednesday's practice

    Stevenson (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Nor did lead back Damien Harris, with both players still in the NFL's concussion protocol. According to Cox, Stevenson and Harris were spotted taking part in conditioning work on a separate field during Wednesday's session, but until they are cleared to practice, Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor are the team's only available options at running back.

  • Enters concussion protocol

    Patriots running backs coach Ivan Fears relayed Tuesday that Stevenson has been placed in the NFL's concussion protocol, Ryan Hannable of WEEI.com reports. "We're on the wait-and-see program," Fears said of Stevenson.

    Analysis: In addition to Stevenson, lead back Damien Harris is also following the five-step concussion protocol, putting both players' statuses in question for Sunday's game against the Browns. In all likelihood, both Stevenson and Harris will be limited or non-participants in practice when the Patriots begin Week 10 prep Wednesday, leaving Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor as the only current healthy backs on the roster. Stevenson received the call over Taylor to serve as the Patriots' third back in last…read more

  • Departs Sunday's game

    Stevenson exited Sunday's game against the Panthers due to a head injury.

    Analysis: Prior to his departure from the contest, Stevenson had logged 10 carries for 62 yards, while adding two catches for 44 yards. Fellow running back Damien Harris also appeared to be shaken up in the contest, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, so it looks like the duo figures to land on the team's injury report ahead of next Sunday's game against the Browns.

  • Logs eight carries Sunday

    Stevenson carried eight times for 25 yards and caught one of his two targets for five yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Stevenson was on the field for 12 off a possible 77 snaps on offense in the contest, while lead back Damien Harris was out there for 41 snaps en route to carrying 23 times for 80 yards and a TD, and Brandon Bolden (25 snaps) ran four times for 26 yards. As long as Harris remains available, Stevenson's volume figures to remain sporadic, and another variable to consider is that different weeks and different game plans could lead to J.J. Taylor reentering the team's backfield mix as well.

  • Back in action Sunday

    Stevenson is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

    Analysis: With Stevenson back in the mix to work along with Brandon Bolden behind lead back Damien Harris, the Patriots made J.J. Taylor inactive for the contest. As long as Harris remains healthy, however, steady backfield touches may be difficult to come by for Stevenson.

  • First career TD in loss

    Stevenson carried the ball five times for 23 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 35-29 overtime loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: The rookie saw his biggest usage yet as a receiver despite some whiffs in pass protection, but Stevenson's biggest impact came in the fourth quarter when he scored his first career NFL touchdown on a one-yard plunge. Damien Harris remains the top option in the Patriots' backfield, but Stevenson seems to be earning a consistent role heading into a Week 7 clash with the Jets.

    Stevenson recorded 11 carries for 23 yards in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Stevenson saw an increased role in the offense throughout the game as Damien Harris battled both chest and rib injuries. Stevenson didn't do much with the opportunity, as his longest rush went for only nine yards. He also wasn't involved at all in the passing game, with Brandon Bolden instead logging four targets and four receptions. Though this wasn't a particularly impressive performance for Stevenson, it is worth noting that in addition to battling injuries, Harris also lost a fumble at the…read more

  • Back in lineup Sunday

    Stevenson is active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Stevenson will draw back into the lineup for the first time since Week 1, while J.J. Taylor is inactive. Look for Stevenson to mix in behind top back Damien Harris and change-of-pace option Brandon Bolden, but until the 2021 fourth-rounder logs steady playing time, he'll profile as a speculative fantasy option.

  • Could rejoin backfield mix

    With James White (hip) expected to miss the rest of the season, Stevenson is a candidate to reenter the Patriots' backfield mix after being a healthy inactive for the team's past two games, Matt Fairburn of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: In the immediate aftermath of White's injury, it was Brandon Bolden -- normally a core special teamer -- who handled the bulk of the team's change-of-pace duties behind lead back Damien Harris. However, in the coming weeks as the Patriots look to fill the void created by White's absence, Stevenson and/or J.J. Taylor could have an opportunity to log extra snaps as well, especially if one or both can prove capable of handling blocking assignments. In any case, Stevenson seems likely to be active…read more

Meanwhile, Damien Harris is in line to serve as New England's lead back and James White will handle pass-catching/change-of-pace duties.

  • Not on injury report

    Stevenson (thumb) isn't listed on the Patriots' Week 1 injury report.

    Analysis: Jeff Howe of The Athletic previously noted that Stevenson dislocated his thumb during practice last week, but the 2021 fourth-round pick looks like he'll be available for Sunday's season opener against the Dolphins. Though the Patriots in the past have tended to ease rookie backs into the equation, Stevenson -- who possesses a nice blend of power and nimble feet -- has a chance to mix in on early downs and perhaps short-yardage situations behind top option Damien Harris.

  • Recovering from thumb injury

    Stevenson suffered a dislocated thumb in practice last week, but the Patriots have some optimism the rookie will be available for Sunday's season opener versus the Dolphins, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The six-foot, 231-pound back looks like a candidate to serve as a short-yardage/goal-line option for the Patriots to begin the season after the team released quarterback Cam Newton and traded Sony Michel to the Rams, but Stevenson's thumb injury suddenly threatens his availability for Week 1. Though the Patriots believe he might be OK for the season opener, Stevenson will have to prove in practice this week that the thumb issue doesn't affect his ability to securely handle or catch the…read more

  • Scores once again

    Stevenson rushed five times for 23 yards and a touchdown and caught both his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 22-20 preseason win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Stevenson capped his excellent preseason with another standout performance. Although he failed on a two-point conversion attempt in the third quarter, Stevenson responded by scoring from nine yards on New England's next drive. The rookie fourth-rounder now will aim to keep his considerable momentum going in Week 1 against the Dolphins, when he'll likely be the Patriots' second rushing option behind Damien Harris.

  • Moves up to second string

    Stevenson took the second handoff in each practice period Wednesday after former teammate Sony Michel was traded to the Rams, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Stevenson was third through the line for most of the summer behind Michel and lead runner Damien Harris. The Patriots also have passing-down back James White, so while Stevenson now may be the second choice for ground work, he'll likely be No. 3 when it comes to snaps this September, if he gets any at all. The rookie fourth-round pick may have played a role in Michel being traded, with excellent work this preseason (193 rushing yards, four touchdowns) making his teammate expendable.

Though the Patriots have in the past tended to ease rookie backs into the equation, Stevenson -- who possesses a nice blend of power and nimble feet -- figures to mix in on early downs behind Harris, and, with Michel no longer in the equation, is one injury away from a chance at a role with steady volume.

    Stevenson rushed 15 times for 66 yards and two touchdowns and secured one of two targets for eight yards in the Patriots' 35-0 preseason win over the Eagles on Thursday night.

    Analysis: The rookie fourth-round pick is making things interesting in the Patriots backfield this summer, as he managed to follow up a spectacular 127-yard, two-touchdown effort in the exhibition opener against Washington with his pair of scores Thursday night.

    Stevenson rushed 10 times for 127 yards and two touchdowns but wasn't targeted in the passing game in Thursday's 22-13 preseason win over Washington.

    Analysis: Stevenson's production came in the fourth quarter against backup defenders, but the rookie fourth-round pick still displayed an impressive mix of power and speed. He scored from one yard out to put the Patriots up 15-7 early in the fourth quarter, then ripped off a 91-yard burst down the sideline to complete the scoring with just over a minute remaining.

How much work the Oklahoma product sees as a rookie will depend on several factors, notably roster composition and injuries, but at this stage Stevenson profiles as a complementary option behind projected top back Damien Harris.
