Rhamondre Stevenson News
Saturday, October 3, 12:26 PM
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson's pass-catching skill set should put him back on the fantasy radar for Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills. Stevenson hasn't been a productive fantasy option in the two games since TreVeyon Henderson returned to action, but that could change this week against Buffalo. Most notably, Stevenson's ability to excel in passing scenarios should match up nicely against the Bills' struggles against pass-catching running backs. In fact, the Bills have allowed the fourth-most catches, third-most receiving yards, and second-most receiving touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2026. Stevenson, meanwhile, already has nine catches on 11 targets this year. The Patriots are projected for a negative game script against the Bills, so while there might not be a ton of rushing volume for Stevenson, he can get onto the RB3/flex radar in PPR leagues because of the anticipated high passing volume.

Ty Chandler News
Tuesday, August 25, 12:26 PM
New Orleans Saints running back Ty Chandler (knee) is expected to miss the 2026 season, head coach Kellen Moore said Tuesday, according to Katherine Terrell. Chandler suffered the injury during Saturday's preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams after spending the summer competing for a reserve role in New Orleans' backfield. The 28-year-old signed a one-year deal with the Saints in March following four seasons in Minnesota. His 2025 campaign was also derailed by a knee injury, limiting him to three games, 17 carries for 47 yards and three catches for 11 yards. Chandler had been involved on special teams this summer as well, including an 86-yard kickoff return in the preseason opener. Moore's update removes another option from the Saints' backfield before Week 1.
