Blake Corum

Blake Corum has eaten into Kyren Williams' workload with the Rams becoming a split backfield. The Rams are doing this to keep Williams fresh for the rest of the season and the playoffs. Corum has had little to no passing game usage, with only one game this season with more than two targets. His avenue to scoring fantasy points is entirely dependent upon his early downs production in the rushing department. Last week, he played 46.4% of the snaps with a 26.8% route share as he finished with 11 carries for 71 rushing yards. This isn't the matchup to plug in a touchdown-drive flex play. Since Week 11, Seattle has allowed the 13th-lowest explosive run rate, the seventh-fewest rushing yards per game, the lowest rushing success rate, and the sixth-lowest missed tackle rate.

The Rams' offense is rolling, and Blake Corum has seen double-digit carries in each of his last two games. He's also scored four touchdowns in his last three games. The Rams also lost Davante Adams to a hamstring injury on Sunday. As a result, this team may be forced to lean on its one-two running back punch of Corum and Kyren Williams. Even against a stout Lions defense, Corum had 11 carries for 71 yards and a score. Meanwhile, Williams also came through with 15 carries, 78 yards and two scores on the ground. This week, the Rams have a massive divisional game against the Seahawks. Corum has proven to be a reasonable Flex option late in the regular season.
