Rhamondre Stevenson Looks To Extend Terrific Scoring Streak
2 months agoNew England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has been one of the NFL's most productive running backs in terms of scoring touchdowns lately. He has found the end zone four times over the last two games. Despite his clear productivity around the goal line, Stevenson has struggled in other areas, including efficiency. He has just 2.1 yards per carry over his last two games. In total over the last two weeks, he has 30 carries for 64 yards on the ground, eight catches for 55 yards through the air, and four touchdowns. He'll look to keep his scoring streak going this week against the Chicago Bears, who have allowed the 13th-most rushing yards and 10th-most rushing touchdowns to opposing running backs this year. Given that Chicago has a strong secondary, we could see the Patriots lean on the run this week, even if they're playing from behind. With decent volume, Stevenson could be a solid low-end RB2, but he'll still need to show good efficiency, scoring tendencies, and pass-catching work.
