I know his name is a mouthful, but it might be worth mentioning Stevenson’s name to the commissioner of your fantasy league if you have Harris on your roster and he ducks out on you before the Pats play Sunday afternoon. Brandon Bolden has taken over the James White role on third downs as the primary pass-catcher out of the backfield, so he has only had seven carries this year. Stevenson had 11 rushing attempts versus Houston last week, and even though he only mustered 23 yards the point is that he is the one getting the early-down touches when Harris is hurt.
The Cowboys' run defense has been stout (5th-ranked in the NFL), so Stevenson is will need to lower his helmet and take every tough yard he can get. That should be no problem as that plays into his strength as a downhill runner who is not one for juking and jiving to avoid tacklers. With Mac Jones playing better, there should be some red-zone opportunities for Stevenson if he emerges as the team’s top tailback for this contest.
