Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) is active for today’s game vs. the Jaguars in London. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so we’re not expecting the foot to be a major issue. Stevenson is fine to get into Week 7 fantasy lineups as a fringe RB2. Jacksonville ranks 30th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs.
The Patriots are expecting RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) to play vs. the Jaguars on Sunday morning, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Stevenson is listed as questionable but was a full-go in Friday's practice. Assuming he plays, Stevenson should step back into the lead role in New England's backfield. He sits 22nd in our Week 7 RB Rankings, boosted by the matchup against Jacksonville's 30th-ranked RB defense.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Jaguars in London. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice and said that he expects to play. We’ll get New England’s inactives around 8 am ET on Sunday. Assuming Stevenson is active, he should slide back in as the Patriots’ lead back.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He now seems unlikely to play vs. the Jaguars in London on Sunday morning. With Stevenson out last week, RB Antonio Gibson led New England's backfield with a 51% snap rate, 13 of 21 RB carries, and four targets. He busted with just 43 scoreless yards in that one, but the workload projection at least makes him a RB3 or Flex option in Week 7 fantasy lineups.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. HC Jerod Mayo said last week that Stevenson isn't dealing with a long-term injury, but he's certainly not a lock to be available for Sunday morning's game vs. the Jaguars in London. With Stevenson out last week, RB Antonio Gibson handled 13 carries and four targets but mustered just 43 total yards.
Patriots RB Antonio Gibson did not perform as the starter replacing RB Rhamondre Stevenson. Gibson rushed the ball 13 times for 19 yards. He caught three passes for 24 yards as well. Stevenson may be back for the Patriots next game.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Texans. HC Jerod Mayo said Friday that Stevenson isn’t dealing with a long-term injury, so we’ll see if he can make it back for Week 7. His absence this weekend should leave Antonio Gibson as New England’s clear lead back. He’s been good as the No. 2 this year, averaging 5.9 yards per carry and 10.8 yards per catch. Gibson gets a Houston defense ranked ninth in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs – and his team is implied for just 15.5 points. But he shapes up as a volume-based RB2 in fantasy lineups.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. He's seemingly in real danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Texans, which would leave Antonio Gibson as New England's feature back. Check back tomorrow for another update on Stevenson.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson missed Wednesday's practice with a foot injury. He got banged up late in last week's loss to the Dolphins but said afterward that he expected to be fine for Week 6. We'll see if he gets back on the field tomorrow. Stevenson's absence against the Texans this weekend would mean a heavy workload for RB Antonio Gibson.
Patriots QB Drake Maye will start this weekend's game vs. the Texans, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. New England hung on to QB Jacoby Brissett as long as it could -- but you can only stick with a QB averaging 5.2 yards per attempt for so long.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson didn’t start in Sunday’s loss to Miami. Still, he led the team in carries (12) and yards (89). He also scored his third TD of the season.
Patriots HC Jerod Mayo said Friday that RB Rhamondre Stevenson will not start this weekend's game vs. the Dolphins. That honor will presumably go to RB Antonio Gibson. Stevenson has fumbled once in all four of New England's games so far this season.
Patriots HC Jerod Mayo said Wednesday that starting RB Antonio Gibson ahead of Rhamondre Stevenson this Sunday is "definitely under consideration." Stevenson has fumbled in each of New England's four games this year, losing fumbles each of the past two weeks. His playing time dipped to 46% and 55% in the past two games after coming in higher than 70% each of the first two weeks.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson managed just 43 yards on 13 attempts in Sunday's blowout loss to San Francisco. Stevenson also fumbled for the fourth straight game.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson mustered just 23 scoreless yards in Thursday night's loss to the Jets. He averaged 3.8 yards per carry on his six attempts and was not targeted. Stevenson appeared to suffer a finger injury midway through the second quarter and missed the rest of that possession. But he returned and played the entire second half. His bigger problem was that New England ran just 48 plays and was playing from behind throughout.
RB Rhamondre Stevenson once again led the Patriots backfield in carries with a final stat line of 21 carries for 81 yards and a TD against the Seahawks. He was also targeted five times in the passing game, though he only had two receptions for nine yards. It was a solid performance again for Stevenson, despite fellow RB Antonio Gibson also earning double-digit carries.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson took advantage of his team's upset victory at Cincinnati with big production on the ground. He rushed 25 times for 120 yards (4.5 per carry) and the team's lone TD. Stevenson also played nearly four times as many snaps as No. 2 RB Antonio Gibson: 51-13, according to Pro Football Focus. Stevenson handled 78% of Patriots RB carries for the game and all three backfield targets. (He caught all three for just 6 yards.)
Patriots RB Antonio Gibson (hip) is expected to play vs. the Patriots today, ESPN's Mike Reiss reports. Gibson was limited in Thursday and Friday's practices and is listed as questionable. He shouldn't be in your Week 1 fantasy plans. We'll see how much work he steals from RB Rhamondre Stevenson.
Patriots RB Antonio Gibson (hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bengals. He was added to the injury report on Thursday and limited again on Friday. Hopefully Gibson isn’t in your Week 1 fantasy plans. His absence would leave RB Rhamondre Stevenson as something very close to an every-down back on Sunday.
The Patriots on Sunday activated RB Antonio Gibson off the non-football illness list. He missed less than a week of training camp.
