Stevenson suffered an eye issue in the second half of the game. Despite receiving eye drops on the sideline, the Patriots’ No. 1 running back was unable to return to action. Postgame medical evaluations indicated that the condition requires close monitoring, and his availability for upcoming games remains uncertain.

This represents a major blow for the Patriots, as Stevenson is not only the team’s primary running back but also the heart of the balanced offensive approach they have built throughout the season. His ability to run powerfully between the tackles, contribute as a receiver, and protect the quarterback has served as the foundation for many key victories. “When Rhamondre isn’t on the field, you don’t just lose yards — you lose rhythm,” a member of the coaching staff shared.

Head coach Mike Vrabel made his caution clear when speaking about his player. “Player health is always the top priority,” Vrabel emphasized. “With issues involving the eyes, we’re not going to take any risks. His career is more important than any single game.”

At this moment, the entire Patriots organization — from players and coaches to the fan base — is united in support and prayer for Stevenson. Across social media, thousands of messages of encouragement have poured in. “This isn’t just football,” one teammate said. “This is family.” While the immediate future remains filled with questions, one thing is certain: New England is standing firmly beside Rhamondre Stevenson in the most important battle of all — protecting his health and his career.
