Williams dominates backfield, as Swift hurt again

Jamaal Williams Headshot

Lions RB Jamaal Williams racked up 87 yards and 2 TDs on 20 carries in Sunday's loss to the Vikings. He added 2 catches for 20 yards on 2 targets. D'Andre Swift, meanwhile, logged just 7 carries and 4 targets (3 receptions) in a game where he was supposed to be ready for more work. After playing through an ankle sprain the week before, Swift was said to be doing better. A post-game report from Sunday, however, indicated that he might now also be dealing with a left-shoulder issue. We'll see about the specifics on Swift, but this already marks the 2nd 2-TD game of the year for Williams -- both with Swift involved. The team's #2 RB clearly belongs on a roster in pretty much any fantasy football league.
