BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams had high expectations after he didn’t start the year on the Physically Unable to Perform list. Many thought he would start the season on the sidelines after suffering a severe knee injury in 2022. Instead, the third-year running back was on the field for the Week 1 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Williams has had a solid season. He is the RB30, averaging 9.9 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. However, the third-year player has averaged 10.9 fantasy points per game in his seven healthy contests. The former North Carolina star has 111 rushing attempts for 436 yards this season. He also has 21 receptions for 109 receiving yards and two touchdowns in 2023.
More importantly, Williams has been outstanding over the past three games, averaging 82 rushing yards and 15.8 fantasy points per contest. The veteran running back has found the end zone in back-to-back games.
This week, he faces the Minnesota Vikings in a challenging matchup. They have held running backs to 15.2 fantasy points per game, the sixth-fewest in the NFL. Furthermore, the Vikings have held running backs to fewer than 17 fantasy points in all but two contests this year.
