Kyle Williams Seeing More Snaps in Patriots Offense

Wednesday, November 11, 5:21 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams has seen a significant increase in playing time over the last two games. Williams played 83% of the offensive snaps against Miami in Week 8 and 78% against Green Bay in Week 9. He had played fewer than 40% in each of his previous seven games. The increased role hasn't produced consistent fantasy results, as Williams failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 45-27 loss to the Packers. He caught a 43-yard touchdown against Miami the previous week, showing his ability to make plays downfield. Williams has just seven receptions this season, so the lack of targets remains a concern. Still, his growing snap share makes him a player to monitor in deeper fantasy leagues.

Zachariah Branch News

Zachariah Branch Won't Play in Week 9

Monday, November 2, 11:08 AM

Atlanta Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski said on Monday that rookie wide receiver Zachariah Branch (hamstring) will not play on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9, according to Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Branch was not targeted at all in the team's Week 8 shutout loss to the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday before injuring his hamstring, and he could be facing a multi-week absence. The 22-year-old third-rounder from Georgia has had a minimal role in the Falcons' offense so far in his first year in the NFL, catching only 10 of his 12 targets for 64 yards and no touchdowns. Branch has speed to spare and is shifty in open space, but barring injuries to the rest of the team's WR corps, he will be fighting an uphill battle for playing time when he returns from his hamstring injury. Branch's next chance to return for Atlanta will be in Week 10 at home against the Kansas City Chiefs. He should only be stashed in dynasty/keeper leagues for now.
