Kyren Williams Salvages Week 6 Performance with Another Rushing Touchdown

Monday, October 13, 12:58 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams carried the ball 13 times for 50 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown during Sunday's Week 6 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He also caught each of his two targets for a total of 37 receiving yards. Williams didn't nearly match his fantasy total from the week prior on Thursday Night Football, but he still contributed with a touchdown and a solid receiving stat line. He has multiple catches in each of his last five games, as well as four touchdowns over his last four contests. He should continue to be treated as a low-end RB1 heading into Week 7 against the Jaguars.

Xavier Worthy Ready To Face Lions In Week 6

Friday, October 10, 11:32 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will face the Detroit Lions on Sunday night in Week 6. Worthy was listed as a DNP on Thursday after practicing in full on Wednesday, leaving his status for the weekend in doubt heading into Friday. The young receiver then logged a full practice on Friday and does not have an injury designation for Sunday night's game. Worthy had six catches for 42 yards in last week's 28-31 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The speedster led the team in targets but finished fourth in yardage, averaging just 7.0 yards per reception. Worthy has been battling shoulder and ankle injuries, but has still been the team's WR1 in the absence of Rashee Rice. With Rice still suspended until Week 7, Worthy should lead the team in targets against Detroit. The Lions have scored the most points in the league this season, and the Chiefs will need to score often to keep up. In a game with a 52.5 O/U, Worthy should have plenty of opportunities to score fantasy points. Worthy is ranked WR11 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him an WR1 this week.
