3 years agoKansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams will draw another start with Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) remaining on IR in Week 9 versus the Green Bay Packers. Williams has been a solid fill in for managers with CEH sidelined and has received 64% or more of the backfield snaps since Edwards-Helaire has been on the shelf. The Packers defense has been efficient against the run game this year and hasn't allowed a team to rush for 100 yards in a game since Week 1. For the season, they are allowing just 77 yards per game to opposing runners. Despite allowing three rushing touchdowns to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8, they have only allowed seven total rushing touchdowns on the season. Backup running back Derrick Gore surprisingly saw 11 carries in Week 8 and was efficient with 48 yards and a touchdown, but only saw 20% of the backfield snaps. Williams remains the running back to roster for the Chiefs and managers should consider him a RB2 in Week 9.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller
