Rhamondre Stevenson vs Sam LaPorta: Who Should You Start?

Comparing Rhamondre Stevenson (RB, New England Patriots) against Sam LaPorta (TE, Detroit Lions) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Rhamondre Stevenson averaged 11.6 PPG in 2025 over 14 games, while Sam LaPorta posted 9.7 PPG across 9 games.

Cross-position FLEX decisions cannot be made on PPG alone. Positional scarcity, matchup quality, floor versus ceiling, and league scoring format all shift the answer. A 14 PPG tight end in a thin TE week is often worth more than a 16 PPG receiver in a deep WR week, because the opportunity cost on the waiver wire is wildly different.

DraftCall's AI engine weighs all of these signals and returns a verdict with clear reasoning, so you are not cross-referencing four different rankings tabs on a Sunday morning.

Rhamondre Stevenson has his bye in Week 14, Sam LaPorta in Week 5. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.

The Bottom Line

The 2025 numbers favor Rhamondre Stevenson at 11.6 PPG, 1.9 points per game above Sam LaPorta's 9.7. But season stats only tell part of the story. DraftCall's AI factors in weekly matchup, recent form, and injury status to give you a verdict that updates with the latest data.
