What happened: The New England ground game may transition to a shared workload following a recent turnover by Rhamondre Stevenson. The mistake has sparked discussion regarding an even split in carries moving forward.

Why it matters: Ball security concerns threaten to reduce his volume as the primary option. Stevenson previously operated as the featured back, but a timeshare would alter the offensive approach and require adjustments to the personnel packages.

What to watch: Coaching decisions in the upcoming week will reveal the exact distribution of touches.
