Should You Start or Sit Blake Corum in Week 6?
It was the Kyren Williams show early on Thursday night, but once Blake Corum got into the game, he immediately ripped off a 13-yard gain up the middle.
Entering the game, the second-year back had seen his touch count increase with each passing game, and the first carry suggested that trend had the potential to sustain.
Motion. Misdirection pitch. Fumble.
And just like that, Corum’s night was effectively over. He ends up playing just six total offensive snaps, and with Williams thriving out of the backfield as a pass catcher (eight catches on 10 targets), the Rams didn’t feel the need to take him off the field.
The Williams giveth, the Williams taketh away.
Down the stretch, Williams had a goal-line carry punched out of his hands, and the game ended in overtime on his only carry of the extra session: a fourth-and-one carry that came up short.
For me, Corum remains a high-end handcuff that has the potential to get 8-10 touches in any game but isn’t likely to ever hold standalone value when Williams is active.
He’s Tyler Allgeier but with a recent fumble giving the coaching staff a reason to move forward with caution.
