Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams (hand) had successful surgery on Tuesday to fix a broken bone in his hand, according to head coach Sean McVay. Williams broke a bone in his hand in Sunday night's one-point wild-card loss to the Detroit Lions, but he'll have plenty of time to heal up before the start of the 2024 regular season. The 23-year-old moved into a starting role in LA's backfield in Week 2 of the 2023 campaign after the Rams traded Cam Akers away. Williams had a career year, carrying the ball 228 times for 1,144 yards and 12 touchdowns while also logging 32 receptions (48 targets) for 206 yards and three more scores in just 12 regular-season games played. He could have more competition for touches in 2024 in the Rams' backfield, but Williams should remain the lead back, which will give him at least high-end RB2 upside in fantasy drafts.

Denver Broncos running back Tyler Badie found the end zone in the team's 41-0 drubbing of the visiting Los Angeles Rams on Saturday night in the preseason finale. Badie's eight carries were second to only rookie Jaleel McLaughlin's 10 on the evening, but while McLaughlin averaged 4.8 yards per carry, Badie only averaged 1.9 yards per tote for 15 rushing yards and a touchdown. The 23-year-old also caught both of his targets through the air for just seven yards. The former sixth-rounder was scooped up off the Ravens' practice squad late last year and had just one catch and one rushing attempt for Denver. Badie isn't a lock to make the Broncos' final 53-man roster, especially since he was outplayed in the preseason by McLaughlin.
