Who Should I Start? Rhamondre Stevenson or Blake Corum

Sunday, October 20, 6:36 PM

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 18 yards on seven carries during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He also caught two of three targets for an additional seven yards through the air. New England seemed to abandon its rushing attack early on Sunday, allowing Drake Maye to throw 37 times. As a result, Stevenson was not much of a factor as he struggled to get going on the ground and didn't carve out much of a role in the passing game. It's possible this trend continues against an up-and-coming Jets team next week, leaving Stevenson in the RB3 tier for fantasy purposes.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum should not be on the fantasy radar yet and that will again be the case in Week 3 against the 49ers. The Michigan rookie was more involved in Week 2 at Arizona but that was largely because the Rams were getting blown out by the Cardinals. He saw eight carries for 28 yards and did not catch a pass out of the backfield. The Rams could shift to a more run-heavy approach with Puka Nacua (knee) and Cooper Kupp (ankle) sidelined. That could mean more touches for Corum as he spells Kyren Williams. But until Corum proves to be featured more in this offense, he should be rostered only as a handcuff for Williams. There is plenty of talent there with Corum but the opportunity is not there at the moment.
