Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians named Kerwynn Williams the team's RB1 for Week 2. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact
As expected, Arians named Williams the Cardinals' RB1, with Andre Ellington assuming the role of the team's primary third down back for Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Colts. Newly added Chris Johnson will land behind both of them on the depth chart. From a fantasy perspective, Williams is the hot waiver wire add to replace David Johnson. However, since Arians is fully anticipated to employ an RBBC, consider any rusher from Arizona a risky fantasy start until there is greater clarity on workload splits.
