Best Rhamondre Stevenson Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Rhamondre Stevenson Under 11.5 First-Quarter Rushing Yards (-118)
Stevenson has been subpar as a rusher this season, averaging a career-low 3.7 yards per carry. This is the lowest average in the Patriots’ backfield and ranks 35th among the 54 backs with 25+ rushes this season. Stevenson leads the Patriots in carries despite his lackluster rushing. Still, TreVeyon Henderson has been New England’s primary ball carrier to begin games since returning in Week 2.
During this span, Henderson has out-carried Stevenson 14-11 in the first quarter. As a result, Stevenson has finished with single-digit first-quarter rushing yards in all but one of these five games alongside Henderson.
Stevenson already has to worry about Henderson stealing carries. Now Corey Kiner is also likely to be in the mix for Week 7 after rushing 11 times for 57 yards — both season highs — in last Sunday’s win over the Jets.
The Bears are a favorable matchup, allowing the ninth-most yards per carry this season (4.5). Still, Stevenson likely won’t see enough volume in the first quarter to top 11.5 yards.
