Jamaal Williams Not Expected To Play In Week 10
2 weeks agoNew Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) is not expected to play on Sunday against the division-rival Atlanta Falcons in Week 10 after aggravating his groin injury in practice on Friday, according to interim head coach Darren Rizzi. With Williams likely to be inactive this weekend, it will mean an elevated role for Jordan Mims as the team's No. 2 RB behind workhorse Alvin Kamara. Mims will be unlikely to see many backfield touches as long as Kamara remains healthy, and the Saints also figure to utilize tight end Taysom Hill more as a wild-card offensive player with receiver Chris Olave (concussion) already ruled out. Williams has had 32 rushing attempts for 124 yards and one touchdown in eight games in 2024, adding four catches for 21 yards, so he hasn't had any real standalone fantasy appeal behind Kamara. UPDATE: Williams has been officially ruled out for Week 10.
