Rhamondre Stevenson Carries Momentum Into Challenging Week 8 Matchup

Saturday, October 25, 9:11 AM

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson will look to build on last week's big game as he takes on the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. Stevenson is coming off one of his best games of the year as he posted a season-high 18 carries for 88 yards and a touchdown. The 27-year-old seemed to widen the gap between him and TreVeyon Henderson on the depth chart, leaving the rookie as nothing more than a bench stash in redraft leagues. Stevenson, on the other hand, has high-end RB2 upside, but he'll need to find success against a stingy run defense. The Browns have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs, leaving him in the high-end RB3/flex tier for now.

Tank Bigsby Worth Stashing Through Eagles' Week 9 Bye?

Monday, October 27, 11:00 AM

Since being acquired by the Philadelphia Eagles in early September, running back Tank Bigsby has seen minimal usage. Heading into Week 8, Bigsby had seen just two total touches. However, that changed in Week 8 after Eagles RB1 Saquon Barkley (groin) was forced to exit the game early due to a groin injury. Bigsby recorded nine carries for 104 yards against the New York Giants with Barkley sidelined for a significant portion of the second half of the game. The Eagles have their bye week in Week 9, and Barkley reportedly appears confident that he'll be healthy enough to play in Week 10 against the Green Bay Packers. The bye week limits Bigsby's fantasy appeal, but he's still a name to monitor as long as there's any question about Barkley's health status. For deep-league managers with an available roster spot, stashing Bigsby through the bye week could pay dividends if Barkley's injury ends up being worse than it initially seems.
