According to AMM info there certainly was in the NG, specifically "stabilizer position" is shown as an input to the speed trim function. I don't see why it would have been removed, but I guess that is possible.

Whether and how it is used in the MCAS algorithm I don't know - I haven't seen any public info on it, and I don't have access to any non-public info.
