Kyren Williams Ignites Rams' Offense with Hot Start and Touchdown Run

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams, 25, had a hot start in Sunday's 21-19 win over the Seattle Seahawks, rushing 12 times for 91 yards and a touchdown, while also catching one of two targets for five yards. Most of his production came in the first quarter, highlighted by a two-yard rushing touchdown sandwiched between impressive 30 and 34-yard runs. His one-yard, fourth-down touchdown run capitalized on a Sam Darnold interception, set up by Kamren Kinchens' 31-yard return, giving the Rams an early lead. Williams proved significantly more effective on a per-touch basis than Blake Corum, who managed only five scrimmage yards on nine touches. As the lead back in an excellent Rams offense, Williams maintains high fantasy value heading into a Week 12 home game against the Buccaneers. He signed a three-year, $33 million contract in August 2025 and has recorded 146 carries for 659 yards and 5 touchdowns, along with 177 receiving yards and 3 receiving touchdowns in 2025.
