Kyren Williams Projects as a Top Fantasy Option Against Chargers

Saturday, October 31, 9:40 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams projects as a high-end RB1 for Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Williams already ranks as the sixth-highest-scoring running back in PPR leagues this season, and he should feast in the lead-back role against a Chargers defense that has allowed the seventh-most rushing touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2026. The Rams are favored by 6.5 points over the Chargers, giving Williams a very favorable game script. It's also worth noting that the Chargers surrendered 128 yards and two touchdowns to Kenneth Walker III in their last game, so Williams is an intriguing candidate to go for 100+ yards and at least one trip to the end zone. As one of the most exciting names in fantasy football this week, Williams should be started in 100% of leagues.

R.J. Harvey Placed on Short-Term IR with Knee Injury

Saturday, October 31, 12:16 PM

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey (knee) has been placed on short-term injured reserve with a knee injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. As a result, the second-year running back will not be eligible to return until December 6 to face the Miami Dolphins (Week 13). Harvey sustained the injury in practice this week but hopes to avoid an extended absence. While he has not been involved much on the ground (averaging just 4.0 attempts per game), he has been a top option in QB Bo Nix's passing attack. Through six games, Harvey has drawn 4.7 targets per game and averaged 36.2 receiving yards per game. While he remains on the shelf, managers should expect J.K. Dobbins to see a larger share of the early-down work, with rookie Jonah Coleman moving up to the No. 2 role in the backfield.
