Jonathan Williams Expected To Start Thursday
5 years agoThe Indianapolis Colts are expected to treat running back Jonathan Williams as the starter on Thursday night against the Texans. It doesn't mean that Williams will see the most touches in a backfield that will also feature Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines in Marlon Mack's (hand) absence, but it's good news for those relying on Williams as an RB3/flex in deeper leagues. Williams and Wilkins could wind up sharing early down work, but neither will be good bets if the Colts are forced to throw the ball to play catch-up with Houston. Hines is the safest RB3 of the group in PPR leagues.
