Javonte Williams Hoping To Keep Momentum Going
1 year agoDenver Broncos running back Javonte Williams had a slow first half of his 2023 campaign while returning from a season-ending knee injury he suffered last year. After nine weeks, he ranks as the RB40 with only 8.3 half-PPR fantasy points per game. But since missing Week 5 due to injury, Williams' workload has steadily increased, culminating in a 30-touch, 95-yard, one-TD performance in the Week 8 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. It was his second straight week nearly totaling 100 scrimmage yards. Rookie Jaleel McLaughlin will continue to remain involved, but Williams appears to be getting his legs under him at the midway point of the season. He'll operate as Denver's clear lead back on Monday night against a Buffalo Bills defense that has been vulnerable on the ground in 2023. Williams is a strong RB2 play in a primetime game in Week 10.
