Jamaal Williams Should Open Year As Workhorse Back
6 years agoGreen Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams, who had five carries for 16 yards and an eight-yard touchdown catch in the first preseason game, should start the year as the team's workhorse back, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. Ty Montgomery figures to serve as the no-huddle/two-minute back. However, Aaron Jones could emerge as the most dynamic of the trio after his two-game suspension. Williams was productive last year, finishing second on the team in total yards and finishing tied for second in total touchdowns. This will be a committee approach once Jones returns, but Williams is the best fantasy target for continued production as an RB2 type. It'd be smart to handcuff Jones with Williams.
