The Denver Broncos couldn't really lean on their ground game after falling down big to the Miami Dolphins early in Week 3 on Sunday in a record-breaking 70-20 loss. Running back Javonte Williams did lead the backfield yet again with 11 carries, but he produced only 42 yards (3.8 yards per carry) on those 11 rushing attempts. He caught two of his three targets through the air for an additional 23 yards. The 23-year-old is still finding his footing in 2023 after tearing his ACL and LCL in Week 4 of last season against the Las Vegas Raiders, but the good news is that neither Samaje Perine or rookie Jaleel McLaughlin have really threatened Williams' workload early in the year as the Broncos ease him in. A Week 4 matchup against the 0-3 Chicago Bears could be a prime opportunity for Williams to be leaned on heavily next week.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson totaled 59 rushing yards on 19 carries against the New York Jets in Week 3. He also turned four targets into just one three-yard reception. Stevenson led the team with 20 opportunities but was out-produced by Ezekiel Elliott (87 scrimmage yards). The 25-year-old should continue to be viewed as a fantasy RB2 going forward, though next week's clash with the talented Cowboys could weaken his production.
