Rhamondre Stevenson High-Risk RB3 Against Panthers

Saturday, September 27, 11:48 AM

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson is expected to maintain a heavy workload in Week 4 despite a rough outing last week. Stevenson lost two fumbles in the loss to Pittsburgh, including one near the goal line that could have resulted in a touchdown. Still, head coach Mike Vrabel backed his lead back, saying, "We absolutely need him and his ability." Stevenson draws the Carolina Panthers in Week 4. While Carolina allowed the most fantasy points to running backs in 2024, they've been far more disciplined against the run this season. Stevenson's volume keeps him in play, but his recurring ball-security issues make him a risky start. He profiles as a low-end RB3 this week.

Omarion Hampton Set for Possible Bell-Cow Status Going into Week 4

Friday, September 26, 3:24 PM

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Omarion Hampton is primed for a heavy workload following the season-ending injury to Najee Harris (Achilles). In the team's 23-20 win over the Denver Broncos, Hampton recorded 19 carries for 70 yards and a touchdown, along with six catches for 59 yards, demonstrating his value in both the running and passing game. The 0-3 New York Giants are an ideal matchup, ranking in the bottom third in every defensive category and allowing the second-most rushing yards in the league. Although the absence of guard Mekhi Becton (concussion) could create some vulnerability, Hampton's expected workhorse role and favorable opponent position him for a strong performance. RotoBaller projects Hampton as RB10 this week and considers him a must-start across all formats.
