Kyren Williams to See a Decreased Role?

Tuesday, September 16, 9:07 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams could be headed for more of a timeshare with second-year running back Blake Corum, according to coach Sean McVay. McVay said that an ideal split would be about "a 65/35 ratio for those guys. I think you want Kyren playing about two-thirds of the time, and Blake playing the other third." Williams played 80% of the team's snaps in Week 1 and 70% in Week 2 while Corum's workload increased. Williams had 66 yards and no touchdowns on 17 carries and added two catches for 14 yards, while Corum had five carries for 44 yards and a touchdown. Williams still seems to be the clear option in passing situations, but Corum's role could cut into his role as the featured back if McVay sticks to this plan. This kind of timeshare split would be a big hit to Williams' value and make Corum a great grab off the waiver wire going into the team's big Week 3 matchup against the Eagles.

Brock Bowers News

Brock Bowers Officially Active on Monday Night

Monday, September 15, 8:47 PM

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) is officially active for Monday night's divisional clash in Sin City against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Bowers suffered a knee injury in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots and was listed as questionable for Week 2 on Saturday's final injury report. The 22-year-old second-year tight end will be wearing a brace on his left knee against the Bolts and shouldn't be limited, so fantasy managers who rolled the dice on him on Monday night will have him available. If Bowers is limited at all, it will open up more opportunities for fellow TE Michael Mayer, who is more than capable of having a decent game for any tight end streamers. Bowers had five catches for 105 yards in the season opener before injuring his knee, and he's already one of the best TEs in football in his sophomore campaign.
