Blake Corum

Blake Corum has been on a touchdown spree, with five scores in his last four games. He's averaged 82 rushing yards per game and 7.5 yards per carry over that stretch. Corum has to score touchdowns and be efficient as a runner to make up for a lack of volume. Although he's had double-digit carries in three consecutive games, Corum hasn't had more than 14 rushing attempts in any game, and he's caught only seven passes this season. Corum typically only plays about one-third of the Rams' offensive snaps behind starter Kyren Williams. But the Rams' offense is a machine, helping to give Corum far more value than your run-of-the-mill backup ball-carrier. Corum gets a neutral matchup this week against the Falcons.

Blake Corum continued his recent surge during Thursday's overtime loss to Seattle, rushing 14 times for 48 yards and a touchdown while adding one catch for 13 yards. The second-year back set a new career high in rushing attempts, and while he still trailed Kyren Williams in total volume, Corum was the only Rams running back to find the end zone.

Fantasy Impact

The score came on a one-yard plunge following a Sam Darnold interception in the third quarter, marking Corum's fifth touchdown over his last four games. Having now recorded double-digit carries in three consecutive contests, Corum brings significant standalone value into a Week 17 Monday night matchup against the Falcons.
