Javonte Williams Week 17 Outlook - Broncos at Bengals

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Fri, Dec 27th 2024, 9:05am EST

Since Week 11, Williams has played 45-56% of the snaps while averaging 9.4 touches and 34.2 total yards as the RB39 in fantasy points per game. Across his last five games, Williams has been abysmal on a per-touch basis, with zero missed tackles forced and only 1.94 yards after contact per attempt. The Bengals' run defense has been so bad that Williams could see a sizable boost to his efficiency this week. Since Week 11, Cincy has allowed the 11th-most rushing yards per game, the second-highest explosive run rate, and the eighth-highest yards after contact per attempt. With this workload capped, Williams is only a flex play/RB3 unless touchdowns flow in his direction.
