Who Should I Start? Trayveon Williams or Ronnie Rivers

Sunday, November 16, 8:29 AM

Los Angeles Chargers running backs Amar Johnson and Trayveon Williams have been elevated from the practice squad ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The two backs will join the roster to serve as depth for Kimani Vidal. Neither player has taken offensive snaps this season, but that might change this weekend. Williams has at least been on the field, but solely playing on special teams. There's a chance they do see a few touches, but it shouldn't be enough to warrant rostering in any fantasy formats. Vidal is going to be the workhorse back, so those two were just brought up as depth.

The Los Angeles Rams have agreed to re-sign running back Ronnie Rivers to a one-year deal. The contract amount has not been disclosed. Rivers has spent the last three seasons with LA, though he never garnered more than 32 carries despite appearing in 34 games since 2022. He's a versatile back and profiles to be a solid handcuff if ever called upon in that capacity. However, he's more of an asset on special teams for the Rams, piling up 75.7% of his 2024 snaps in that phase of the game. The 26-year-old will continue to vie for offensive snaps with backup Blake Corum behind incumbent starter Kyren Williams. Rivers can currently be ignored for fantasy purposes.
