Kyren Williams quiet in tough matchup

Kyren Williams Headshot

Rams RB Kyren Williams managed just 53 yards rushing and 4 receiving in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. It wasn't a particularly bad performance, though. Williams got just 13 carries, so his 4.1 yards per rush were solid vs. a defense that arrived ranked No. 1 in DVOA against the run. And he garnered just 2 targets (catching both). Williams still claimed 15 of the team's 16 RB opportunities. So there's nothing to worry about if you have Williams rostered. He'll get a much better matchup in Week 6 against the Cardinals. The only other RB opportunity Sunday went to Ronnie Rivers: a 1-yard carry.
