Week 16 – Kerwynn Williams vs. Seattle
Kerwynn Williams played pretty well against the Rams last week, getting 15 carries and gaining 75 yards to go with a pair of receptions and 11 yards receiving. Williams split carries with Stepfan Taylor nearly 50/50, and it seems likely this will continue to be the case going forward, limiting the fantasy upside of both players.
Against Seattle this week, Williams is likely to get his fair share of carries, but he’ll be facing the league’s fifth ranked rushing defense and top defense overall. The Seahawks have really looked like the defending Super Bowl champs on the defensive side of the ball in recent weeks, and Williams is at best, a low end RB2/Flex option in deep leagues. Fantasy owners would be wise to look elsewhere if possible.
