Caleb Williams

Despite being the QB8 in fantasy points per game, Williams has experienced similar volatility to J.J. McCarthy with five top-ten fantasy finishes this season, while also having four games as the QB20 or lower. Among 42 qualifying passers, Williams ranks 15th in yards per attempt, 29th in CPOE, 34th in catchable target rate, and 12th in fantasy points per dropback. During his last matchup with Minnesota, Williams was the QB9 in fantasy, but he needed 58 rushing yards and a rushing score to pull that off. He had only 210 passing yards with a 60% completion rate and 6.0 yards per attempt. Over the last two games, with Minnesota's pass defense getting healthier, they have still ranked 16th in yards per attempt and passer rating and given up the 11th-highest CPOE and passing touchdowns (tied). There's a lot of risk and reward with both quarterbacks in this game. Each could be a QB1 this week or a disappointing QB2.

Caleb Williams completed 20 of his 36 passes for 220 yards and one touchdown while adding eight carries for 63 yards and a touchdown in a 24-20 win over the Giants in Week 10.

Fantasy Impact

Williams was on his way to a quiet afternoon until he came alive in the fourth quarter. He threw a two-yard TD pass to Rome Odunze with 3:56 left in the game and then rushed for a 17-yard, game-winning touchdown with 1:47 left in regulation. Williams will look to keep it going in Week 11 against the Vikings.
