Analyze Blake Corum's matchup for week 10
Corum’s touches have spiked—13 carries in Week 9 and a 47% snap share the last three games—but he’s still Kyren Williams’s clear backup; the Rams’ blowout scripts help, yet without a Williams injury Corum is a low-ceiling bench stash in Week 10.
Los Angeles rolls into Week 10 scoring 86-20 over the last three weeks, so positive game scripts should keep the ground game involved. The specific opponent run-defense rank is missing, but the Rams’ offense is humming and Corum has out-paced Williams in yards before contact (3.7 vs 2.2), hinting the line is opening holes for him. Still, Williams dominates red-zone and two-minute work, capping Corum’s touchdown odds and keeping him in the change-of-pace role.
Career-high 13 carries last week and a 47% snap share over the past three games; 4.5 YPC and improved pass-catching keep him on the RB2 radar if Williams sits.
The arrow is undeniably up for the second-year back. After a forgettable rookie year (3.6 YPC, zero TDs), Corum has carved out a real role: his carry share has risen every month, and the coaching staff has trusted him in competitive moments, not just garbage time. Advanced metrics love him—he’s averaging a full yard more before contact than Williams, suggesting the offensive line’s surge benefits him equally. Yet fantasy utility remains tethered to Williams’s health. In redraft leagues that don’t award premium points for handcuffs, Corum’s weekly floor is barely flex-worthy; he’s touched the ball more than 15 times only once and has yet to score. Stash him aggressively—an injury to Williams would vault Corum into 18-touch, goal-line upside in a top-ten offense—but for Week 10 keep him glued to your bench unless you’re in a 16-team league starving for a lottery ticket.
