Stevenson is reportedly dealing with an illness – not any kind of physical football injury. As a result, there’s no reason to expect him to miss the season opener for the Patriots. Any work that Rhamondre doesn’t receive will more than likely go to Ezekiel Elliott, who will be waiting in the wings to vulture as much work from New England’s RB1 as he can. Fantasy managers can return to their regularly scheduled programming until further notice.
