Javonte Williams News
Friday, October 2, 10:13 PM
Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams got back on track in Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens by rushing 19 times for 98 yards and a touchdown and catching two of his three targets for five yards, finishing his day with 18.3 PPR fantasy points. The Cowboys clear RB1 was inefficient in his first two contests, mustering under three yards per carry across those two contests. With elite Cowboys run-blocking guard Tyler Smith (thumb) still out with an injury, Williams played well in Week 3 despite problems along the offensive line. Dallas will travel to Houston for their Week 4 game, though, and the Texans are one of the toughest defenses in the NFL. Williams' receiving role helps, though he doesn't get an impressive amount of volume through the air by any means. This makes him a boom-or-bust low-end RB1 -- he has the volume to avoid the low end of single-digit scoring outings, but not the pass-catching role to propel him to overall RB1 finishes in any given week. Still, Williams should be locked into starting lineups in all fantasy leagues for the Cowboys' next game.

Kenneth Walker News
Friday, October 2, 11:13 AM
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker had a decent fantasy performance in the 24-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins last week, but it was a down week by his lofty standards. After racking up over 175 scrimmage yards in each of the first two games, Walker finished Week 3 with just 70 rushing yards and three receiving yards. He was able to produce a good fantasy performance by scoring two touchdowns against Miami. Walker will have the opportunity to eclipse 100 rushing yards this week as the team travels to Las Vegas to face the Raiders. The Raiders defense has been a tough matchup for opposing offenses to begin the year, but the Chiefs are among the best offenses in the league. Walker has been one of the most proficient tackle-breakers this season, so he should be able to find success where others have not. The Chiefs also involve Walker as a pass catcher to create explosive plays in the screen game. Walker has multiple avenues to succeed and a high probability of finding the end zone any given week. Walker is ranked RB3 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a top-end RB1 for fantasy.
