Rhamondre Stevenson Fantasy Overview

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Raiders, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. That's typically a 4- to 6-week injury, although Schefter says Henderson "is regarded as a quick healer, so the Patriots are hoping his return is sooner rather than later." It sounds like Henderson should at least avoid short-term IR, but we'll find out for sure later this week. We'd at least plan on Henderson missing the next 2 games vs. the Jets and Bears. Rhamondre Stevenson will be a borderline RB1 for those contests as New England's workhorse. Corey Kiner will step in as a lightly used No. 2 RB.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Raiders. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable. Stevenson said Friday that he was “ready to go,” although HC Mike Vrabel sounded unsure of his availability for this one multiple times throughout the week. Stevenson certainly comes with some added risk in fantasy lineups today.
