Rhamondre Stevenson could see an increased third-down role

Rhamondre Stevenson is in line to have an increased third-down role out of the New England backfield should Ty Montgomery miss an extended period with his ankle injury.

Fantasy Impact: Stevenson appeared in 12 games last year, rushing 133 times for 606 yards and five TD. In addition, he caught 14 of 18 passes for 123 yards. Increased third-down work would benefit fantasy managers and presumably lead to a higher number of receptions, increasing his value in half-PPR and PPR leagues.
