Kyren Williams News
Monday, September 21, 8:24 PM
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams rushed for 85 yards on 12 carries during Monday's blowout win over the New York Giants in Week 2. He also caught two passes for 12 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown. Williams averaged just 3.7 yards per carry in last week's season opener, so it was quite encouraging to see him nearly double his per-carry average with 7.1 yards per attempt this week. Additionally, after scoring 13+ touchdowns in each of his last three seasons, Williams remains on pace for another big scoring year after reaching the end zone for the second game in a row. The Rams did give Blake Corum 12 carries of his own this week, but he doesn't have the same touchdown or receiving upside as Williams. The 26-year-old is a high-end RB2, but he has low-end RB1 upside depending on his matchup. He'll face off against a solid Denver Broncos defense in Week 3.

De'Von Achane News
Saturday, September 19, 5:40 AM
Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane had a very disappointing Week 1 performance with just 36 rushing yards on 11 carries against the Raiders. He still grabbed four catches on five targets for 30 yards, which saved his fantasy day a little bit, but he still didn't get into the end zone. The Dolphins' offense is expected to be very run-heavy and focus on Achane, but in Week 1, that didn't lead to success. In Week 2, he'll take on a tough 49ers defense that allowed Kyren Williams to find the end zone in Melbourne in Week 1. Despite his slow start, Achane has enough upside to still be a starting RB in most formats, since he's the No. 7 RB in RotoBaller's PPR rankings for Week 2 and the No. 11 RB in non-PPR rankings.
