Stevenson's workload against the Jets on Sunday will depend on whether TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) is cleared to play, Evan Lazaar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Henderson was expected to miss multiple weeks due to a high-ankle sprain that he sustained against the Raiders in Week 5. However, the second-year running back was able to practice in a limited capacity in all three Week 6 practices, which was enough for him to draw the questionable tag for Sunday's AFC East showdown. If he's ruled out, then Stevenson would be the Patriots' clear RB1 and take on a sizable workload, with Corey Kiner serving in a rotational role.
Stevenson is expected to take on a heavier workload for the next few weeks while TreVeyon Henderson recovers from a high-ankle sprain that he sustained in Sunday's 45-17 win over the Raiders, per ESPN.
The good news for Henderson is that surgery is not required, but whether an stint on injured reserve is necessary remains to be seen. Stevenson has served as the Patriots' RB1 this season, and the veteran's share of the backfield snap count figures to grow even more for as long as Henderson is sidelined, with Corey Kiner slated to take on backup duties. Over his last two games, Stevenson has turned 26 carries into 111 yards (4.3 YPC) and two touchdowns while adding six catches on eight targets for 48 yards.
Everyone sharing the ball with Rhamondre, most valuable first.
Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.
Stevenson carried the ball 13 times for 64 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 45-17 rout of the Raiders.
There was some question whether Stevenson would even be active for this one after a knee issue limited his practice participation during the week, but the veteran was the clear top option in the Patriots' backfield as TreVeyon Henderson managed just 38 scrimmage yards on five touches. Stevenson's longest gain went for 20 yards en route to a season high in rushing yards, and he punched in a five-yard TD in the first quarter that put New England in the lead for good at 14-7. Stevenson will look to keep rolling in a Week 6 tilt against the Jets.
Stevenson (knee) is active Week 5 against the Raiders.
After a week of limited practices, the expectation has been that Stevenson would suit up against the Raiders, and Sunday's official inactives report confirms that notion. He'll now be set to share backfield duties with TreVeyon Henderson against a below-average Raiders defense that is giving up 134.5 yards per game on the ground.
Stevenson (knee) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
A limited participant in both of the Patriots' first two Week 5 practices, Stevenson still appears to be managing the knee issue he sustained late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's win over the Bills. The fact that he hasn't been held out of practice entirely is a strong sign that Stevenson will be available for this Sunday's matchup with the Raiders, though he might need to upgrade to full participation Friday to head into the weekend without an injury designation.
Stevenson (undisclosed) is not expected to practice Wednesday, Taylor Kyles of CLNSMedia.com reports.
Stevenson appeared to injure his leg or knee toward the end of last Sunday's win over the Bills, but it's unclear if his absence Wednesday is related to that issue. Head coach Mike Vrabel expressed some optimism that Stevenson can still play Sunday against the Raiders. If not, TreVeyon Henderson would be set up for a potential breakout week as the clear lead back for New England, though Corey Kiner and Lan Larison could also see work out of the backfield.
Stevenson was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury.
Per Mark Daniels of MassLive.com, head coach Mike Vrabel said prior to Wednesday's session that Stevenson had "no chance" of practicing, but the running back ultimately was able to get in enough on-field work to receive a limited listing on the Patriots' first Week 5 injury report. Stevenson is banged up after he appeared to land awkwardly on his right knee after getting tackled on his final carry with 1:05 remaining in this past Sunday's 29-26 win over the Bills. Vrabel noted that Stevenson hasn't been ruled out for this weekend's matchup with the Raiders, though the 28-year-old would likely need to upgrade to full practice participation Thursday or Friday in order to avoid taking a designation into Sunday.
Stevenson rushed 13 times for 47 yards and a touchdown while bringing in three of five targets for 27 yards in the Patriots' 29-26 win over the Bills on Sunday. He also caught a two-point conversion pass.

Stevenson is likely to split carries with TreVeyon Henderson in Week 2 against the Steelers, as Henderson was a full participant in Wednesday's practice after missing the season-opening loss to Seattle due to an ankle injury.
Stevenson saw a heavy Week 1 workload in Henderson's absence but found limited success against Seattle's stout front, turning 23 touches into 95 scrimmage yards. Henderson's return is likely to cut into Stevenson's volume, though both running backs played important roles for the Patriots last season, with Henderson bringing breakaway speed while Stevenson provides a dependable option who can run, catch passes and pass block adequately.
Stevenson rushed 18 times for 51 yards and brought in five of six targets for 44 yards in the Patriots' 13-10 loss to the Seahawks on Wednesday.

Stevenson is expected to see the bulk of the snaps and touches out of the backfield Wednesday against the Seahawks after teammate TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) was ruled out for the season opener, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Stevenson and Henderson are expected to have a fairly equitable split of the backfield when both are fully healthy, but the latter's absence for Week 1 should clear the way for Stevenson to handle a workhorse role. The Patriots have Corey Kiner on hand as a backup option, and at least one of Lan Larison and Hassan Haskins will be promoted from the practice squad for the opener, but none are expected to poach much work from Stevenson on early or passing downs. With a big workload likely awaiting him Wednesday, Stevenson should make for a strong option in Week 1 fantasy lineups, even in a tough matchup against the reigning Super Bowl champions.
