For Rhamondre Stevenson, the rookie experience is all about learning: ‘You have to stay in that playbook or you’ll get left behind’

While the majority of players on the New England Patriots’ current roster is in its summer break, the team’s first-year players still have some work to do. Led by first-round quarterback Mac Jones, the group is still taking part in the so-called rookie developmental program until July 2.

Rhamondre Stevenson is also one of the nine participants. The Oklahoma running back was selected in the fourth round by the Patriots earlier this offseason, and since that point has been focused on only one goal: getting up to speed quickly.

It all starts with the playbook, as he pointed out during a recent media conference call.
