Blake Corum Suffers A Fractured Forearm
3 months agoLos Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum (forearm) was diagnosed with a fractured forearm, according to head coach Sean McVay. The rookie suffered the injury during Sunday's loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He won't be available for the postseason, meaning Ronnie Rivers and Cody Schrader will presumably operate behind Kyren Williams. Without question, Corum wasn't as advertised during his first season in the league, amassing 207 yards off 58 attempts, adding seven catches for 68 yards. Even worse, he didn't find the end zone. Unless something changes, Corum's fantasy value will be much lower entering the 2025-26 campaign. But he'll likely see attention from Williams' fantasy managers for insurances purposes.

Blake Corum Questionable To Return On Sunday
3 months agoLos Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum (forearm) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks. He wasn't involved much, amassing two carries for 10 yard and adding one grab for 12 yards. With the Rams already locked into a postseason spot, there's a good chance Corum won't be back, even if he's healthy enough to return. If that's the case, Ronnie Rivers and Cody Schrader will remain the go-to options out of the backfield for the rest of Week 18.

Blake Corum Has Potential For A Breakout Against Seattle
3 months agoLos Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has shown flashes of potential in limited work this season, and in Week 18, he could be lined up for a sizable workload since the Rams are resting starting RB Kyren Williams with a playoff spot secure. The Rams have been running the ball effectively with Williams, but Corum has only totaled 197 yards on his 56 carries (3.5 yards per carry). The third-round pick from Michigan brings an element of explosiveness and upside but also represents a very unproven option that has yet to do much on the NFL stage. His upside has him as RotoBaller's RB28 this week, making him a solid RB3 or FLEX option. He also is a DFS option since he should get plenty of work against the Seahawks, who have allowed three touchdowns to running backs in the last five weeks.

Blake Corum Held In Check Against Arizona
3 months agoLos Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum did get his typical workload in the second quarter against the Cardinals on Saturday night, but he ended up losing four yards on his three carries. He got all of his work on the team's third possession and remains firmly behind Kyren Williams on the depth chart. Corum has totaled 197 rushing yards on his 56 carries in his rookie season while catching six-of-seven targets for 46 receiving yards. However, despite his ineffectiveness Saturday, Corum could be in store for a bigger workload in Week 18 against the Seahawks since the Rams could clinch the division on Sunday depending on multiple results that impact their strength of schedule tiebreaker. If Williams is rested, Corum would be an interesting play against Seattle, so stay tuned for status updates leading up to Week 18's kickoff.

Blake Corum Remains In Limited Role
3 months agoLos Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to be minimally involved every week in the Rams' rushing attack. The rookie from Michigan had five carries for 14 yards last week and also had a 32-yard run which was called back due to an illegal motion penalty. Corum does bring an element of explosiveness to the offense, but his role is still extremely limited. He typically plays a drive or two early in the game, and Kyren Williams handles the rest of the work. He has the potential to break out and is in a favorable matchup, but he is only RotoBaller's RB52 this week since his role is so limited and Williams has had so much success.
