Fantasy Football Player Notes

Kyren Williams is the RB14 in fantasy points per game, averaging 14 touches and 81 total yards. Williams has a 59% snap rate, 40.4% of the rushing attempts, a 54.8% route share, and an 8.5% target share. Williams has handled six of the eight running back red zone rushing attempts for the Rams. Among 43 qualifying backs, he ranks ninth in explosive run rate and 11th in missed tackle rate. Williams should have another nice outing in Week 3 against a run defense that has allowed the 13th-highest explosive run rate, the most yards after contact per attempt, and the highest missed tackle rate.

Blake Corum's value is entirely based upon his rushing stats. He doesn't have a red zone carry through two games, but I expect that he'll start to work into that area of the field for the Rams eventually. Corum has averaged 11.5 touches and 73 total yards. Among 43 qualifying backs, he is second in explosive run rate and third-best in missed tackle rate. Corum is a strong flex play this week with a wonderful matchup. The Broncos have allowed the 13th-highest explosive run rate, the most yards after contact per attempt, and the highest missed tackle rate.
