Kyren Williams is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 3 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 61% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Kyren Williams Williams was only rostered in 5% of all leagues entering Week 1, but his availability diminished significantly after Sean McVay deployed him as L.A.’s lead back in Week 1. Williams finished sixth among all backs with 52 snaps while generating 52 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
McVay’s decision to make Cam Akers a healthy scratch in Week 2 fueled the latest plunge in his perpetually fluctuating value. It also provided Williams with a runway to operate with a league-high 75 snaps, which has launched him into the overall lead with 127 entering Week 3.
He also assembled 52 yards and a touchdown with his 14 rushing attempts, while running 43 routes, collecting six of his 10 targets, and delivering another touchdown as a receiving weapon.
Williams’ favorable numbers during two consecutive outings are encouraging, and his versatility should also keep him highly involved during the upcoming weeks. He has also vaulted him among this week’s top priorities in any leagues where he remains available
