Outlook Kyren Williams
Kyren Williams vs. Giants — Primed for Heavy Workload as Home Favorites
Williams remains the clear lead back in the Rams' backfield ahead of Blake Corum, coming off a Week 1 outing where he handled 14 touches and punched in a five-yard touchdown. With wideout Puka Nacua questionable due to a hip injury, Los Angeles could lean even more on the ground game to establish offensive rhythm at SoFi Stadium.
Rostered in 100% of leagues and started in nearly 97%, Williams is a locked-in must-start option. Our weekly projection models expect around 14 carries for 55 rushing yards and over three receptions for 24 yards, giving him strong touchdown equity as 6.5-point home favorites in an offense looking to rebound.

Outlook Jonah Coleman
Opportunity Knocks with RJ Harvey Sidelined Against Jacksonville
Jonah Coleman enters Week 2 with an expanded opening in the Denver backfield following RJ Harvey being ruled out with a hamstring injury. While veteran J.K. Dobbins headlines the running back rotation, Coleman should step in as the direct backup and handle short-yardage or early-down relief work at home against the Jaguars.
Even with the bump in opportunity, Coleman is strictly a bench stash rather than a viable starting option, rostered in 34% of leagues but started in virtually none. Our weekly projection pegs him for roughly 2 carries, 7 rushing yards, and under 2 fantasy points. Leave him on your bench, but keep a watchful eye on his usage in Payton's rotation.
