FOXBOROUGH, MA. — New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson knows that in order to secure his spot atop the team’s running back depth chart, he must first routinely secure the football.
Despite his impressive dual-threat skill set, the Oklahoma product has become known as much for his struggles with ball control in recent season. With his most glaring weakness having once again taken center stage during Friday’s in-stadium scrimmage, Stevenson is eager to prove that is is more than capable of keeping the ball in Patriots hands when he number is called.
“Ball security, that’s at a premium right now,” Stevenson told reporters after Monday’s practice.
