Who Should I Start? Kyren Williams or Tyler Warren

Sunday, January 4, 3:22 PM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. The Rams can only finish as the No. 5 or No. 6 seed in the NFC, so there was some speculation that they might rest their injured starters, including Williams. However, head coach Sean McVay made it clear that he wanted his starters to play, especially after last week's loss against Atlanta. Thus, Williams will play this weekend and should continue to share touches with Blake Corum. He has at least 70 rushing yards in each of his last five games, ranking as a mid-to-low RB1 option for fantasy football this week.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren presents as a low-upside option for Week 18's road clash with their division-rival Houston Texans. For all intents and purposes, Warren has had an excellent rookie campaign, hauling in 71 passes for 791 yards and four touchdowns on 104 targets -- all second-best on the team. That said, the Penn State alum's production has slowed following the team's Week 11 bye, as he's surpassed 30 receiving yards just twice on six occasions. It's a stark contrast to the first ten weeks of the year, when he failed to do so just once. Favorably, Warren has remained a featured part of the offense with veteran signal-caller Philip Rivers at the helm. Still, he'll carry a less-enticing ceiling than usual when they face off with the best defense in the league on a yards-per-game basis (274.4). Warren ranks as RotoBaller's PPR TE14 ahead of this weekend's games.
