2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
In Week 1 last year, Cam Akers ran the ball 22 times to Williams' 15. It seemed to be a split befitting their respective statuses as RB1 (Akers) and RB2 (Williams). On to Week 2, right? Wrong. Akers never suited up for the Rams again, eventually being traded to the Vikings, and Williams took over as the lead back. While an ankle injury would put him on the shelf for a month, the Notre Dame product proved he could be a workhorse when healthy.

In six games after returning from injury, Williams averaged 25 touches per game, resulting in 131.5 yards per contest -- he topped 100 total yards in each game -- and eight total touchdowns. Like most of the skill players, Williams was held out in Week 18, and he wasn't nearly as effective in the Wild Card loss to Detroit (70 yards, 0 TDs), but that had more to do with fewer opportunities (14 touches).

For as good as Williams has looked on the field, there are viable questions about his durability after spending time on Injured Reserve with ankle injuries in each of his first two seasons. He also missed part of the offseason program his rookie year with a broken foot. In terms of production, you're looking at a potential top-five fantasy RB, even with the arrival of Blake Corum. There's risk here, though, so make sure your depth is solid if you're investing in Williams to be your No.1 back.

News From The Past 90 Days
Injury Cooper Kupp unlikely to play in Week 7
Will work out during pre-game
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Oct 20, 5:22 pm

Rams WR Cooper Kupp, listed as questionable for Sunday due to an ankle injury, is unlikely to play vs. the Raiders, per sources. Rams still want to work out Kupp pre-game before making any decision about him. Rams WR Jordan Whittington, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a shoulder injury, is expected to play vs. the Raiders, per source. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: Kupp suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 2 and hasn't played since. If he sits, which seems likely, the Rams will roll out Tutu Atwell, Demarcus Robinson and Jordan Whittington as their top three receivers against the Raiders. Expect a heavy dose of Kyren Williams in this game.


Kyren Williams expected to return punts
Starting RB has returned 17 punts over last five seasons

FFToday's Take: Count this nugget as news fantasy managers did not expect to read today. Not only does Williams have limited experience returning punts (14 in 2021 for Notre Dame and three last season), but this admission likely means there is no way Williams will be the same workhorse he was last season. Especially considering Williams' injury history, his fantasy managers would be wise to make Blake Corum a priority in drafts.
