Los Angeles Rams second-year running back out of Michigan, Blake Corum, dominated once again in Week 14, rushing for 128 yards on 12 carries (10.7 yards per carry) and two touchdowns in the Rams' 45-17 rout over the Arizona Cardinals. Corum is one of, if not the best, fantasy football handcuff right now and is a must-add off the waiver wire if available in your leagues. The Rams' offense ranks fourth in the NFL, averaging 29.2 points per game, and Kyren Williams, the Rams' lead running back, has also been solid in 2025 but has lately been giving way to Corum to help keep him fresh for the NFL playoffs. Still, Rams coaches have expressed interest in keeping both involved, and Corum is no joke, averaging 5.45 YPC on the season. Corum remains an RB3/Flex consideration in leagues with multiple flex spots or 14 teams or more. On the season, Corum has rushed for 550 yards on 101 attempts with four touchdowns. Up next for the Rams is a big NFC clash against the Detroit Lions.

Los Angeles Rams second-year running back out of Michigan, Blake Corum, dominated once again on Sunday, rushing for 128 yards on 12 carries (10.7 yards per carry) and two touchdowns in the Rams' 45-17 rout over the Arizona Cardinals. Corum has now scored three touchdowns in the past two weeks and has rushed for 209 yards on 19 carries over his past two weeks. Kyren Williams is still the starter in this explosive Rams offense, but Corum is making his case for a potential takeover and to become a league winner down the stretch. The Rams have publicly stated that they are interested in limiting Williams' workload as the team prepares for its playoff run. Regardless, Corum has seen his workload ramp up over the past five weeks, and he is one of, if not the top handcuff, in fantasy football going into the fantasy playoffs. Even without the handcuff, he is providing RB3/flex value based on his pure production and projected 8-10 carries and 30-35 percent snap share. He is a must-add off the waiver wire if he is currently out there in any of your leagues.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum had 12 carries for 128 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns during Sunday's Week 14 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He also converted his lone target into a three-yard reception. Corum had one fewer carry than Kyren Williams, but he was far more productive in terms of yards, yards per carry, and touchdowns. The highlight of Corum's game was a 48-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter, but he also scored from two yards out during the opening frame. Offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur recently said that giving Corum more touches allowed Williams to stay fresh down the stretch. While that's true, the second-year running back would likely be working his way into a larger role even if the Rams weren't trying to preserve Williams' legs. Corum has been playing at an elite level lately with 19 carries for 209 rushing yards (11 YPC) and three touchdowns over his last two games. He is the second-highest-scoring running back in fantasy football during that two-week span. Even though Williams is the Rams' lead back, Corum has worked his way into the high-end RB3 or low-end RB2 conversation against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 15.
Dec 7, 2025 8:45 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has carved out a fantasy-relevant role lately, and he should remain involved during Sunday's Week 14 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. Offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur recently said the Rams found that an increased workload for Corum allowed Kyren Williams to remain fresh deep into the season. This trend should continue as Los Angeles aims to keep Williams healthy and productive ahead of the playoffs. As a result, we can expect Corum to maintain his trend of handling roughly one-third of the offensive snaps and 7-10 touches per game. He was particularly effective last Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, carrying the ball seven times for 81 yards and one touchdown. However, his touchdown came in a brief period where Williams was being evaluated for an injury. We expect that the goal-line role will remain with Williams as long as he stays healthy. Furthermore, Corum isn't much of a receiving threat, catching just five passes for 10 receiving yards this year. Therefore, fantasy managers will need him to deliver high efficiency on the ground. He's a riskier play for Week 14, but he should still benefit from a matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. He ranks as the overall RB33 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for this week, which means managers in 12-team leagues can feel comfortable deploying him as an RB3 or flex.

Los Angeles Rams second-year running back out of Michigan, Blake Corum, had himself a fantastic Week 13 with 81 rushing yards (11.57 YPC) on 11 carries and a touchdown. More importantly for Corum fantasy owners, Kyren Williams left the game for a bit with an ankle injury. However, he eventually returned, scored a touchdown, and finished with 13 carries on the afternoon, nearly doubling Corum in total touches. Regardless, it's difficult to ignore Corum's production on Sunday, combined with the fact that since Week 7, he has seen at least seven carries and played between 28 and 40 percent of the snaps during that stretch, which is more than last year or anytime earlier in this season. Corum remains one of, if not the best, handcuffs in fantasy football. If Williams were to miss time, Corum would immediately become a top-20 running back on one of, if not the best, offenses in the NFL in 2025.
Dec 1, 2025 9:40 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to carve out a modest role behind Kyren Williams. However, the bulk of his volume has been short-yardage runs, leaving him off the fantasy radar in most leagues. Over the last two weeks, Corum has a respectable 15 carries, but he has totaled just 34 rushing yards (2.27 yards per carry). He also has zero touchdowns and just one reception during that span. Williams remains the clear lead-back in Los Angeles, which leaves Corum as a bench-worthy running back in most fantasy leagues. Even against the Panthers, who have allowed the eighth-most rushing yards and seventh-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025, Corum isn't a dependable fantasy option. He ranks as the overall RB49 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.
Nov 29, 2025 7:00 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum was beginning to carve out some standalone fantasy value after three straight weeks with double-digit carries. However, his momentum has stalled in the last two weeks, as he's seen a combined 15 carries for 34 yards on the ground while catching just one pass for a loss of five yards. Despite the Rams blowing out the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night, the 25-year-old had only seven carries for 24 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game. Corum has had a bigger role behind Kyren Williams in 2025 in his second year in the league, but it has led to just 82 rushing attempts for 341 yards and one touchdown on the ground in 11 games. He's a fine handcuff for fantasy managers who have Williams rostered, but he won't be recommended as a flex play when the Rams face the Carolina Panthers in Week 13.
Nov 25, 2025 3:30 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to factor into the team's plans as they prepare for Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Corum is averaging 12.8 carries over his last four games, but his efficiency has been far from desired. Last week, he had just 1.3 yards per carry and also lost two yards on his lone reception. Despite the efficiency concerns, Los Angeles continues to trust him to handle a standalone role behind Kyren Williams. While Williams remains the primary back, Corum has played at least 28% of the snaps in each of his last four games. This week's matchup looks intriguing on paper as the Buccaneers have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025. However, a large portion of those points have occurred in the passing game, and Corum doesn't have much of a receiving role. In fact, the Bucs have allowed the eighth-fewest rushing yards to running backs. As a result, Corum ranks outside the top-36 running back range for Week 12. Specifically, he's the overall RB41 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings.
Nov 22, 2025 4:09 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to get significant opportunities in the team's rushing game, and he can be a deep-league addition if you're looking for running back options on the waiver wire. Corum only had 10 rushing yards in Week 11 against the Seahawks, but he still did get eight carries while playing 16 snaps (31% of the offensive total). He's still working behind Kyren Williams, but he has averaged 11.5 carries per game over his last four contests, and he continues to play about one-third of the Rams' snaps. He and the Rams have a favorable schedule the rest of the season, with the Buccaneers this Sunday night and then matchups against the Panthers and Cardinals, who have been good running back matchups this season.
Nov 18, 2025 10:32 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has taken on an expanded role lately, registering at least 12 carries in each of his last three games. He played at least one-third of the offensive snaps in two of those three contests. He's also averaging 4.4 yards per carry over the last two weeks. Despite taking on an expanded workload in his role behind Kyren Williams, Corum could be headed for an underwhelming performance in Week 11, even if he continues to log double-digit touches. Corum is rarely ever involved in the passing game, relying on his rushing stats to anchor his fantasy performances. That could backfire on Sunday against the Seahawks, who have allowed the fewest rushing yards, third-fewest rushing touchdowns, and seventh-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. They've been much softer against pass-catching running backs, but that's more of a factor for Williams than Corum, given their respective roles. Against a tough defense, Corum remains a mere handcuff and can be left on the bench in fantasy football.
Nov 15, 2025 12:17 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum remains a steady producer alongside Kyren Williams, as Williams held a slight lead in touches, 16 to 13, last week. While Williams continues to see the majority of the offensive snaps (58%), head coach Sean McVay has found ways to utilize his change-of-pace back. Corum has seen 12 or more carries in each of the last three games, but faces a stiff Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 11. Corum should be considered a speculative add on the waiver wire this week, with exploitable defenses down the road.
Nov 12, 2025 11:31 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams backup running back Blake Corum has now seen double-digit carries in three straight games for the Rams as he continues to see more work alongside starter Kyren Williams. In Sunday's 42-26 win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10, Corum tied a season high with 13 rushing attempts for 56 yards while playing a season-high 39% of the offensive snaps. It helped the 24-year-old's cause that L.A. pulled away by multiple scores in the second half, but fantasy managers cannot ignore the fact that he has 38 carries for 151 yards (4.0 yards per rush) in the last three contests. The downside is the fact that Corum hasn't scored since Week 2, and he has only four receptions for 15 yards on eight targets on the season. Corum is definitely touchdown-dependent and continues to work behind Williams, but his increased involvement in a high-scoring offense at least makes him worth RB3/flex consideration in deeper leagues heading into a Week 11 divisional showdown against the Seattle Seahawks.
Nov 11, 2025 12:18 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum could be headed for reduced volume during Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Corum, the Rams' backup to Kyren Williams, has been heavily involved over the last two weeks, touching the ball 26 times, but his increased workload was likely a direct product of the Rams taking large leads over the Jaguars and Saints. They're expected to play a much closer game against the Niners, leaving fewer opportunities for depth players like Corum to touch the ball. In fact, when the Rams and 49ers last played against each other in Week 5, Corum had just one touch on a season-low nine percent snap share. His recent efficiency (4.46 YPC last week) should earn him more than one touch this time around, but his double-digit touch totals from the last two weeks might be out of reach. He should continue to be left on fantasy benches as a mere handcuff behind Williams.
Nov 8, 2025 2:31 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum recorded 13 carries for 58 yards in his team's 34-10 Week 9 win over the New Orleans Saints. After failing to reach double-digit carries in any of his first six games of 2025, Corum has now logged at least 12 rush attempts in each of his last two contests. It's worth noting that Los Angeles notched two straight blowout wins, which could be why Corum is eating into the workload of Rams RB1 Kyren Williams. Still, Corum has earned an efficient 4.6 yards per carry when given the opportunity this season. At worst, he's a high-end handcuff option to Williams, who could be a league-winner if Williams were to suffer an injury. In fantasy leagues where he remains available, Corum should be rostered heading into a Week 10 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
Nov 3, 2025 10:59 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum will look to build on his expanded role as he takes on the New Orleans Saints in Week 9. For most of this season, Corum has served as the clear backup to Kyren Williams. However, he has shown flashes of playing at the same level, such as in Week 7 when he and Williams each handled 12 touches against the Jaguars. At the time, this split was likely the product of Los Angeles leading by multiple possessions. However, coming out of the bye week, it could be an indicator of the backfield usage going forward. Corum has the potential to carve out standalone value against the Saints, who have allowed the seventh-most rushing yards to running backs in 2025. That's especially the case if the Rams jump out to a large lead early on.
Nov 1, 2025 11:19 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum is back on the fantasy radar after a high-volume outing against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. During that Week 7 contest, Corum rushed for 37 yards on a season-high 12 carries and 34 percent snap share. He also caught a pass. The 24-year-old capitalized on a positive game script, as he and Kyren Williams both handled a dozen rushing attempts in the 35-7 victory. While Williams will remain Los Angeles' lead back, Corum's high-volume showing could be a sign that he'll continue to handle an increased workload going forward. He should showcase this large workload during a projected positive game script against the Saints in Week 9. If Los Angeles takes a sizable lead early in the game, we could see Corum push for 10-12 carries once again. It's common practice for managers to pursue high-volume running backs in good offenses, so even though Corum is behind Williams on the depth chart, he's still an intriguing waiver wire target as a fringe top-36 running back in fantasy football.
Oct 29, 2025 2:29 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum earned a season-high 12 carries last Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, totaling 37 rushing yards. He also converted his lone target into a six-yard reception. In addition to handling his highest carry total of the season, Corum rushed the ball as many times as Kyren Williams and also played a season-high 34 percent of the snaps. The 24-year-old's increased workload was likely aided by a very positive game script, as Los Angeles was consistently ahead by four possessions. Corum's Rams will head into a Week 8 bye before returning to action against the New Orleans Saints. That game should offer more positive game script scenarios for the Rams, leaving Corum in the low-end RB3/flex range. He's worth claiming off waivers if you have enough bench spots that you can justify stashing him through his bye week.
Oct 22, 2025 2:02 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to operate in a clear depth role behind Kyren Williams, keeping him off the fantasy radar ahead of Week 7 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Corum has impressed with 5.38 yards per carry this year, but opportunities have been hard to come by. He has just six carries and zero receptions over his last two games, and he hasn't played more than 30 percent of the offensive snaps in a single game this season. The 24-year-old is an intriguing handcuff who would become an RB2 if Williams missed time. However, Williams is currently healthy and has full control of the backfield. As a result, Corum can be left on waivers (or benched in deeper leagues) ahead of Week 7.
Oct 18, 2025 11:44 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Blake Corum (ankle) will not practice on Wednesday, according to Stu Jackson. Corum suffered an ankle injury in Sunday's Week 6 win over the Baltimore Ravens and is now in danger of missing the Week 7 game in London on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 24-year-old is considered day-to-day for now after being able to return to the field on Sunday in Baltimore after initially injuring his ankle. Corum has not had any standalone fantasy value this year while working as Kyren Williams' backup, so even if he's cleared to play this weekend, he should stay on your bench. If Corum doesn't get cleared to play overseas on Sunday, rookie Jarquez Hunter would take on an elevated role as the change-of-pace back behind Williams.
Oct 15, 2025 3:18 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Blake Corum (ankle) is considered day-to-day after injuring his ankle in the 17-3 victory over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 6 on Sunday, according to Wyatt Miller. Corum will be monitored throughout the week, but the Rams are hopeful that Corum will be available for the Week 7 contest in London on Sunday when they take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. Corum's availability for the international game will depend on whether he can get back on the practice field this week, starting on Wednesday. Even if Corum practices this week and is active against Jacksonville, though, he won't have any standalone starting value for fantasy managers behind starter Kyren Williams. And if Corum needs more time, rookie Jarquez Hunter would be elevated to the backup role this coming Sunday.
