FOXBOROUGH — An already-thin running back room got thinner on Sunday for the Patriots against the Packers.
Rhamondre Stevenson suffered a knee injury in the third quarter and was ruled out.
Stevenson remained down after a play, but walked off the field and into the blue medical tent. He eventually made his way to the locker room for further evaluation.

The Patriots were down 42-21 when Stevenson was ruled out. It’s possible it was just precautionary due to the score.
With TreVeyon Henderson (illness) out for the foreseeable future, the Patriots can ill-afford to lose another running back, especially with A.J. Brown (knee, ankle) and Romeo Doubs (shoulder) out.
It’s unclear when the trio will return.
Stevenson lost a fumble in the third quarter. The Packers scored a touchdown on the first play of the drive after the recovery.
Before the injury, Stevenson had six carries for 32 rushing yards to go with three receptions, 46 receiving yards and a touchdown.
