Should You Start or Sit Rhamondre Stevenson in Week 13?
Stevenson hasn’t scored in three straight games, and his production relative to expectations over that stretch is -41.1%. He now has five games this season with single-digit PPR points — three games with under five points to offset his three 20+ point games.
The game script was an issue for New England last week (five carries for 11 yards in the first 30 minutes with the Pats down 24-0) and, as expected, Stevenson was rendered useless in the second half.
I’m confident that Stevenson is the featured back in this offense, but I’m just as confident that he can’t make the carries count (2.8 yards per carry over his past six games). He’s as underwhelming as any featured back in the game and thus checks in as nothing more than an average Flex.
