Bijan Robinson vs Rhamondre Stevenson: Who Should You Start?
The numbers tell a clear story here. Bijan Robinson put up 19.5 fantasy points per game for the Atlanta Falcons in 2025, while Rhamondre Stevenson managed 11.6 across 14 games with the New England Patriots. A 7.9-point weekly edge is substantial at the running back position.
That 7.9-point weekly advantage for Bijan Robinson is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Bijan Robinson is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 79 targets into 820 yards, while Rhamondre Stevenson profiles as a more traditional rusher with 603 rushing yards and 7 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats Bijan Robinson carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
Bye weeks matter for roster construction: Bijan Robinson sits Week 12 while Rhamondre Stevenson is off Week 14. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.
