ADVICE

Start Stevenson If Henderson Is Out

  • Start Rhamondre Stevenson as a strong flex or RB2 if Travion Henderson is out due to a favorable Jets matchup.
  • Prefer him over Breece Hall in some lineups when you expect a feature workload against New York.
ADVICE

Watch For Resting Starters

  • Monitor Rams and Steelers for rest/inactive reports before finalizing lineups; start players unless you get a clear hint they'll be sat.
  • If Stafford or other stars look like second-half pulls, have a backup QB ready on your bench.
INSIGHT
