Who Should I Start? Kyren Williams or Ashton Jeanty

Saturday, December 6, 9:50 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams remains the primary option out of the team's backfield, but his floor has declined with the emergence of Blake Corum. Offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur recently noted that allowing Corum to spell Williams more often has allowed the latter running back to stay fresh over the course of the whole season, and that trend should continue as the playoffs get closer. Managers shouldn't be surprised to see Williams finish with around 15 touches per game while Corum handles roughly seven to 10. With that said, Williams does remain a low-end RB1 in fantasy football, largely due to his ability to catch passes and score touchdowns. He has 24 receptions and 10 trips to the end zone so far in 2025. That bodes well for his outlook in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points and second-most receiving touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2025. While Williams is no longer the high-end RB1 that managers consistently depended on when he was handling north of 20 carries per game, he's still a top-12 fantasy running back for the rest of the season. Specifically, he ranks as the overall RB10 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for Week 14.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie running back Ashton Jeanty has displayed his receiving ability in recent weeks, recording at least six receptions in three straight games. Jeanty has struggled to be efficient as a runner all season due to the Raiders' poor offensive line, but he's still found ways to deliver for fantasy managers. Since Week 9, the rookie first-rounder has recorded 70 carries for 190 yards and a touchdown to go with 28 receptions for 165 yards and two touchdowns on 34 targets. His 28 receptions during that span trail only Christian McCaffrey, and he ranks as the RB10 in that stretch with 16.3 PPR points per game. Jeanty will look to stay productive as a receiver in Week 14 against the Denver Broncos' stout defense. The rookie totaled 19 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown with three receptions (three targets) for five yards against them in Week 10, and he profiles as an upside RB2 in Week 14.
