LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Arizona Cardinals

it was a run-heavy gameplan against the Jets as Kyren Williams had 22 carries for 122 yards and a touchdown in Week 16. I'd expect something similar from the Rams again in Week 17 as the Cardinals are 30th aFPA against running backs.

Williams checks in as RB6 on the week overall so there's not much to say other than he should be in your lineup. This is a great spot and he has one of the best roles in football. If he gets any targets that is just icing on the cake.

LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at New York Jets

With the rain last week a lot of the Rams offense rested on the shoulders of Kyren Williams last week. He led the way with 29 carries for 108 yards and added 2 catches for 4 yards in a true workhorse role.

The Jets are 16th aFPA against running backs this season so it is a neutral matchup for Williams. That said, he's RB8 on the week and proven he's going to dominate touches and while the targets aren't what they were he's still an easy click every week in your lineup.

LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at San Francisco 49ers

Kyren Williams continues to dominate the touches in the backfield for the Rams. In an up-tempo game, he had 29 carries and 2 targets, while Blake Corum only had 8 carries. It was nice to see Williams get a couple of targets after not getting any for a few weeks. If we could get it up to 4-5 instead of 1-2 each week that would be massive, but with Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua both fully healthy it just isn't in the cards.

The 49ers are vulnerable on the ground as they are 20th aFPA against running backs this year. The role and the matchup align again here and while Williams is a RB2 in the rankings this week (RB13), he's a must-start .

LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs Buffalo Bills

While Kyren Williams still didn't see a big week in the passing game, as he caught his only target for 9 yards, he did break 100 yards on the ground and found the end zone again against the Saints. While we'd love to see more work through the air, it's just going to be so tough as long as Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp are healthy.

This should probably be another Williams game as the Bills are vulnerable on the ground, checking in at 30th aFPA against running backs. Williams checks in as RB8 on the week and is a must-start this week against the Bills.

LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Atlanta Falcons

On the plus side, Kyren Williams completely owns the Los Angeles Rams' backfield. On the downside, he hasn't seen a target in two weeks. That's a bit of a worry for Williams' upside as his pass-catching role had been a nice added bonus to his always reliable role as the workhorse carrying the ball.

Thankfully, New Orleans is 31st aFPA against running backs this season. Now, does full control of the backfield offset the lack of targets recently? I don't think so and our projections agree as Williams is RB9 this week after being consistently near the top with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp out. He's a must-start, but just remember his ceiling isn't what it was.

LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Kyren Williams had been one of the safest options in fantasy, but with the return of Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp he's gone from the focus of the offense to the third option. We knew he would see fewer targets, but he didn't even see a single target against the Patriots.

The Eagles are a slightly better matchup against the run, but are still 7th aFPA against running backs. You are still starting him as he's a RB1 this week, but the ceiling isn't as high with Nacua and Kupp both healthy.

LAR RB Kyren Williams - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at New England Patriots

Any week Kyren Williams is playing, he's a threat to finish as RB1 on the week with his role. While he had a down week against the Dolphins, the matchup against the Patriots should be much easier on the ground. In fact, last week was his second straight week without a touchdown and given the matchup, we'd have to assume that comes to an end this week.

The Patriots are 27th aFPA against running backs this season, so the matchup is fantastic. Like we said, any week he is active he has RB1 overall potential and this matchup puts him in a great spot to do so. Williams is a must-start in your lineups.
