Patriots Secure Rhamondre Stevenson with Four-Year, $36 Million Extension

New England locks in their star running back, signaling a shift from Bill Belichick's team-building approach.

Stevenson's deal includes $17 million in guaranteed money and up to $12 million in incentives.
The extension makes Stevenson the seventh-highest-paid running back in the NFL by average annual salary.
The Patriots have also extended contracts for key players like Kyle Dugger and Christian Barmore.
Jerod Mayo and Eliot Wolf are focusing on retaining homegrown talent in their first year in new roles.
Stevenson aims to return to his 2022 form after an injury-shortened 2023 season.
