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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
Oct 13, 2025 12:13 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum (ankle) is questionable to return to his team's Week 6 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens due to an ankle injury, per Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times. Corum had four carries for 14 yards before getting injured. If he is unable to return, Rams RB1 Kyren Williams would likely dominate the team's backfield touches for the remainder of Week 6. Rookie running back Jarquez Hunter could potentially see the first carries of his career as well.
Oct 12, 2025 2:08 PM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum should continue to be benched in most fantasy football leagues ahead of his Week 6 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. While Corum made a push for more playing time from Weeks 2 to 4, his snap share dropped to a measly nine percent last Thursday night, as he rushed the ball just one time and didn't catch a pass. The most important factor here is Kyren Williams' effectiveness out of the backfield, and he has played quite well, making an impact on the ground and through the air. Williams' 91 percent snap share, 131 scrimmage yards, and two touchdowns last week gave the Rams plenty of reasons to pound the rock with Williams and no desire to get Corum involved. Corum remains a mere handcuff option heading into Week 6 against the Baltimore Ravens, despite Baltimore allowing the third-most fantasy points to opposing running backs.
Oct 11, 2025 12:07 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has continued to see his role grow, but this increased workload might not be enough to put him on the fantasy radar against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5. Corum played 29 percent of the snaps last week and handled a season-high 11 touches, infringing on Kyren Williams' role. Corum should continue to handle double-digit touches most weeks, but he could struggle with efficiency this week. After all, he's facing a Niners defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. He would have some low-end RB3/flex appeal against a mediocre or subpar defense, but the 49ers are no joke. He'll have trouble moving the football during Thursday night's divisional battle.
Oct 2, 2025 12:47 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to carve out an increased role within the backfield, making him a player to monitor or even pursue in fantasy football leagues. The 24-year-old played 29 percent of the offensive snaps on Sunday, which was his second-highest mark of the season. He also posted season highs in rushing attempts (nine), targets (four), and catches (two), albeit while posting poor efficiency on the ground and negative yardage through the air. Kyren Williams remains the undisputed No. 1 running back in Los Angeles, but Corum is certainly eating into his workload and making a push for expanded touches week after week. Last Sunday was the first time Corum had double-digit touches in a single game, and if this continues, he could have some standalone value as an RB3/flex in deeper fantasy leagues. He's a worthwhile waiver wire target in leagues with at least 12 teams, especially as bye weeks and injuries plague the position. However, he might be tougher to trust this week in particular as he faces the San Francisco 49ers, who have allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to running backs in 2025.
Oct 1, 2025 3:01 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has turned some heads lately, as he's averaging 6.7 yards per carry over his last two contests and has played more than one-quarter of the offensive snaps during that span. Kyren Williams remains the lead back in Los Angeles, but Corum has made a case to earn more touches. We do expect the 24-year-old to play at least 25 percent of the snaps in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts, but he's not yet a reliable fantasy option for managers looking to round out their starting lineups. Instead, Corum is best viewed as a handcuff, which means he can be stashed on the bench in leagues with at least 12 teams. Most of his value comes from the points he'd score if Williams ever missed time due to injury, though he could eventually carve out a little bit of standalone value here and there. Fantasy managers should heed this warning and leave Corum out of their lineups, as RotoBaller's experts have him ranked as the overall RB43 in PPR leagues this week.
Sep 27, 2025 2:05 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum gained 53 yards on eight carries in Sunday's 33-26 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Los Angeles collapsed late after commanding a significant lead over the reigning Super Bowl champions. Still, Corum continued to see an increase in his volume for the second straight week. Backfield mate Kyren Williams had handily outsnapped him 92-28 through the first two weeks, and did so again on Sunday (50-16). However, the 24-year-old has been the more efficient runner, posting three yards more per carry than his veteran counterpart (7.1). Corum won't be seizing the RB1 role in LA any time soon, but he's firmly on the high-end handcuff radar. We'll see if he can continue trending up when the Rams take on the surprise 3-0 Indianapolis Colts in Week 4.
Sep 22, 2025 11:55 AM EST
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum is trending toward handling a larger role going forward, but his productivity could be held in check ahead of Week 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Corum saw his snap share jump from 17 percent to 30 percent in Week 2, and he also scored a touchdown while rushing for 44 yards on five carries. While a favorable matchup against the Titans may have boosted his efficiency, it appears that the Rams are still looking to get him more involved. Even if he handles around one-third of the snaps in Week 3, though, he won't be a reliable fantasy option. Williams profiles as the Rams' short-yardage back and their go-to option around the goal line, and Corum will likely see reduced efficiency against an Eagles defense that has allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to running backs in 2025.
