Williams Keeps Fantasy Value as Corum Takes Over

Rams’ Recent Success Fueled by Versatility

The Los Angeles Rams have turned a chaotic three‑season stretch into one of the league’s most resilient campaigns. A key ingredient in that turnaround has been a running back who can fill multiple roles on the field. Kyren Williams, now in his third year with the franchise, has become the backbone of the offense by blending rushing, receiving, and pass protection. NBC Sports’ Kyle Dvorchak notes that even when his workload shifted, Williams kept delivering consistent fantasy production.

Williams’ Statistical Impact in 2025

Even with a reduced rushing share, Williams still posted 15.5 PPR points per game. He amassed over 1,500 yards from scrimmage and added 13 touchdowns, earning a low‑end RB1 ranking. The former third‑round pick proved efficient on the ground and as a pass catcher, turning a smaller role into a high‑impact season. His ability to stay productive despite Blake Corum’s emergence highlighted just how vital his versatility is to the Rams’ attack.

How Corum’s Arrival Changes the Landscape

Corum, a speed‑focused runner, entered the scene with a style reminiscent of Le’Veon Bell, often grinding out modest gains but sometimes falling short on third down. The Rams’ shift toward 13‑personnel sets means Corum will likely see an even larger share of the load in 2026. Still, his patient approach can lead to tackles for loss, which may force defenses to respect the run inside. The offense’s success hinges on a hard‑nosed back who can draw that respect, a role Williams has mastered.

To keep the defense guessing, Williams continues to see targets whether he lines up as a ball carrier or a receiver. This dual threat disguises the play‑call and ensures he stays in the offensive scheme, which should sustain his RB1/RB2 fantasy value. Unless the Rams overhaul their entire operation, the combination of Williams’ versatility and Corum’s complementary style should keep fantasy managers interested.

The Rams’ ability to weather injuries and slow starts over the past three seasons illustrates why they’re considered one of the league’s most successful franchises. Williams’ consistent production despite role changes embodies that resilience, offering a blueprint for how the team will navigate the upcoming season. With Corum stepping into a bigger picture and Williams retaining his key spots, fans can expect another solid year for both the Rams’ campaign and their fantasy rankings.
