News: 1 day agoWilliams rushed 23 times for 122 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for seven yards in Sunday's 19-9 win over the Jets.

Spin: Williams powered in his 15th total touchdown of the season on a two-yard run in the second quarter, matching his touchdown total from last season. He provided the majority of the Rams' offensive production as Matthew Stafford threw for only 110 yards in frigid conditions at MetLife Stadium. Williams has surpassed 100 rushing yards in three of his last four games after reaching that threshold only once through Week 12. The star running back will look to continue his late-season surge against the Cardinals in Week 17.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: After injuries kept Williams off the field in 2022, he entered his sophomore effort barely drafted by fantasy managers (14th-round ADP in 12-team PPR leagues). That quickly changed as Williams emerged as the Rams' undisputed RB1, averaging nearly 22 touches per contest in his 12 games played. A creative runner with receiving chops and an uncanny nose for the end zone (15 total TDs, third among RBs), Williams turned on the jets down the stretch, posting nearly 24 fantasy points per game from Weeks 12 through 17. He did break his hand during the team's Wild Card game in Detroit, but should be healed up in time for training camp. Fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on rookie Blake Corum's potential ascent, but Williams remains the lead back and is a solid RB1 target.
