2021 season

[edit]

Stevenson was drafted by the New England Patriots in the fourth round, 120th overall, of the 2021 NFL draft.[15] He signed his four-year rookie contract with New England on May 19, 2021.[16]

After being lightly used during the first eight games of the season, Stevenson had a breakout game in week 9 against the Carolina Panthers, with 106 all-purpose yards that included a 41-yard reception on a short out-pattern that set up a Patriots touchdown, before leaving the game with a concussion.[17][18] The following week versus the Cleveland Browns, with regular starter Damien Harris inactive due to a concussion in the prior week, Stevenson was named the starter. He scored two touchdowns on 100 yards rushing, and added another 14 yards on receptions as New England won 45–7.[19] In Week 11 against the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday Night Football, Stevenson once again led the team in rushing, splitting carries with starter Damien Harris, and ending up with 69 yards on 12 carries in the 25–0 win.[20] He continued to serve as the team's #2 running back behind starter Harris, gaining 46 yards on nine carries in week 13 win against the Tennessee Titans and taking the bulk of the load in a run-heavy win over the Buffalo Bills in week 14, a game in which the Patriots only threw the ball three times, amassing 78 yards on 24 carries.[21][22] He finished the season with 606 rushing yards and five touchdowns in 12 games and two starts.[23]

2022 season

[edit]

Stevenson had a breakout season in 2022, despite starting the season as the backup to Damien Harris. In Week 5 against the Detroit Lions, Stevenson rushed for 161 yards on 25 carries in a 29–0 win.[24] The following week, in his first start of the season, he rushed for 76 yards and two touchdowns in a 38–15 win over the Browns.[25] In Week 15, he ran for a career-high 172 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries.[26] He finished the season with 1,040 rushing yards and five touchdowns along with a team-leading 69 catches to go with 421 receiving yards and one touchdown.[27]

2023 season

[edit]

In the 2023 season, Stevenson had 156 carries for 619 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns to go with 38 receptions for 238 receiving yards in 12 games.[28]

2024 season

[edit]

On June 20, 2024, Stevenson signed a four-year, $36 million contract extension that included $17 million guaranteed with the Patriots.[29] On October 4, head coach Jerod Mayo announced that Stevenson had been demoted from his starting role due to fumbling issues.[30] In Week 8 against the New York Jets, Stevenson rushed for 48 yards and two touchdowns, including a game-winner in the 25–22 win.[31]
