Kyren Williams Week 4 Outlook - Rams at Bears

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Thu, Sep 26th 2024, 2:32am EDT

It may feel like there is a glitch in the matrix when looking at Kyren Williams' statistics versus his fantasy point totals. Williams is the overall RB3 through three games, but it has not exactly been aesthetically pleasing. His 3.0 yards per carry average is the second-lowest among 31 running backs who are averaging 11 or more carries per game. Williams is also one of three backs in that subset who have yet to break a run of 15 yards or longer. But he has 63 total touches through three games, while the other Rams running backs have combined for 12. The Rams are dealing with multiple injuries to their offensive line, so Williams' efficiency may never reach 2023 levels this year. However, the volume cannot be ignored, so Williams remains an every-week start in all formats.
