Rhamondre Stevenson, projected as the New England Patriots' starting running back for the 2025 season, is currently absent from OTAs due to personal reasons, not injury-related issues. Despite this, he remains the focal point of a power running game under new offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels.
2025 Projections: Stevenson is expected to achieve 724.8 rushing yards and 5.9 touchdowns on 172.5 attempts, alongside 198.4 receiving yards and 1.3 receiving touchdowns on 32.1 receptions. His projected fantasy points total is 131.9.
The Patriots' backfield also includes Antonio Gibson, serving as a change-of-pace and receiving back, and rookie TreVeyon Henderson, who will be eased into the NFL. Stevenson's role as the primary two-down back makes him a valuable asset in 2025 fantasy drafts, particularly in standard and half-PPR formats.
