Fantasy Football Player Notes

Javonte Williams finds himself on the fringe of fantasy RB1's once again this week. Once again, we have a situation with a solid NFL RB who finds himself as the top ball carrier on one of the league's best offenses. Unfortunately, that means that when he doesn't find the endzone, his fantasy weeks may be underwhelming. After scoring twice in the season opener, he failed to find pay dirt in Week 2, finishing with 50 total yards. It was good to see him be more involved as a receiver, but last week was the Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb show. This week, they face a tough Jesse Minter defense that held the Saints' RBs to 11 total Half PPR fantasy points last week. It will be tough sledding again for Williams; however, he is always a threat to find the end zone. In a tough matchup, I view him as an RB2 with touchdown upside.
