So for fantasy, we're not talking about it on a weekly basis in DFS that like, oh, I'm projecting Rhamondre Stevenson to run, you know, to get a 40-yard reception this week... I mentioned the Rhamondre Stevenson season with the really big um air yards. He only has 37 targets, but he ends up going for 345 receiving yards
STACKED’s take
Stevenson's high aDOT (345 yards on 37 targets) shows explosive receiving upside.
Stevenson exemplifies running backs with vertical route capability and explosive play potential. Ben Gretch notes that while you wouldn't project Stevenson for a 40-yard reception on a weekly basis in DFS, understanding offenses that deploy running backs on vertical routes and the explosive upside from occasional deep targets is valuable for running back selection, as hitting on a 40-yard play in the pass game is massive regardless of role (rotational or workhorse). Stevenson posted 345 receiving yards on just 37 targets in 2024, demonstrating a meaningfully positive air yards per target (aDOT) that boosted his receiving production well above his target volume; he continued this receiving efficiency into the postseason, suggesting a sustainable role expansion.
