Fantasy Football Player Notes

At the time of writing, it's unclear whether or not Damien Williams is going to be able to return for this matchup against the Buccaneers. If William does return off of the COVID-19/Reserve list, Herbert can't be trusted as anything more than a low-end RB3 in our starting lineups due to the lack of volume. If Williams doesn't return, Herbert's worth considering as a high-end RB3 in lineups, but we shouldn't be expecting the type of production we've gotten from him over the past two weeks. The Bucs defense is a brutal matchup for opposing RBs and the majority of offensive coordinators simply look to abandon the run game, so we shouldn't be overly optimistic for his week seven outlook.

As of right now, we simply don't know whether Williams is going to return to lineup after landing on the COVID-19/Reserve list last week. Even if he does return, there's no guarantee that he's going to be 100% himself or see the majority of the work in this backfield. For right now, Williams should be viewed as a mid-range RB3 if he plays. We'll continue to update as there's more information.
