Rams' Blake Corum: Generates 20 total yards in win
Blake Corum had three carries for five yards and brought in two of three targets for 15 yards in the Los Angeles Rams' 12-6 win over the 49ers on Thursday night.Kyren Williams logged 29 carries for the second time in four days, so there wasn't much left over for Corum on the ground after he'd recorded eight rush attempts in both of the previous two contests. The rookie did set new career highs in receptions and receiving yards, albeit with modest totals. Williams now will have some extra time to rest from the aforementioned 58-carry tally over a compact two-game period, so Corum is likely to remain in a clear complementary role during a Week 16 road matchup against the Jets on Sunday, Dec. 22.

Rams' Blake Corum: Another eight carries
Blake Corum rushed the ball eight times for 34 yards in Sunday's 44-42 win over the Bills.Corum's role in the offense remained elevated, as his eight rushing attempts matched his highest mark of the season. However, he remains the clear backup to Kyren Williams, who saw 31 total touches in Sunday's win. That leaves Corum as valuable insurance to Williams, but he has very little standalone fantasy value for now.

Rams' Blake Corum: Season-high rushing total
Blake Corum rushed eight times for 42 yards during Sunday's 21-14 victory against the Saints.It was a day of career highs for Corum, as he was on the field for nearly a third (18 of 56) of the Los Angeles Rams' snaps on offense. Kyren Williams, who had been struggling with fumbles in recent weeks, responded with an excellent 15-104-1 rushing line on the day, with the yardage representing a season high. While Corum's role did increase, Williams still handled the bulk of the workload, capping the rookie's upside heading into a Week 14 showdown against the Bills.

Rams' Blake Corum: Just one carry in defeat
Blake Corum rushed once for five yards during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Eagles.Corum's single touch on offense was the rookie's lowest usage since Week 9 against the Seahawks. The biggest story for Corum's fantasy managers was Kyren Williams fumbling twice, with one of those recovered by the Eagles. The two fumbles brought Williams' total to five in the last seven games, and the recurring ball security issues might give Corum a chance to gain more of a role in the backfield if they continue. A susceptible Saints defense is up next in Week 13.

Rams' Blake Corum: Slight uptick in usage
Blake Corum rushed five times for 21 yards and caught his only target for seven yards during Sunday's 28-22 victory over the Patriots.Corum was on the field for 10 of the Los Angeles Rams' 52 snaps on offense, but Kyren Williams still maintained his dominance of the snap share and actually produced his best game of the year in regards to YPC. The rookie did muster the only reception by a running back for the Rams during the game, but his role seems to be stagnant as the Rams prepare to host the Eagles in Week 12.

Rams' Blake Corum: Three touches in defeat
Blake Corum rushed twice for eight yards and caught his only target for seven yards during Sunday's 23-15 loss to the Dolphins.Kyren Williams wasn't his usual self in this contest, earning just 15 carries for 62 yards while also losing a fumble, but that didn't lead to an expanded role for Corum, who saw the field for just five snaps on offense. The Patriots, who held the Bears to just three points this week, are up next for Corum and the Los Angeles Rams in Week 11, and Williams seems likely to continue to dominate the snap count at running back.

Rams' Blake Corum: Invisible in victory
Blake Corum rushed one time on his only snap for minus-1 yard and returned two kicks for 49 yards during Sunday's 26-20 overtime win against the Seahawks.Kyren Williams left the field for only a single play out of the 77 the Los Angeles Rams ran on offense, even during overtime. Corum hasn't shown much in his limited usage, although he did see some action as a kick returner with marginal success. Williams struggled a bit in the victory, managing only 3.1 YPC and no touchdowns on his 22 carries, but Corum's role seems unlikely to change heading into a Week 10 Monday night showdown against the Dolphins.

Rams' Blake Corum: Little change in usage
Blake Corum rushed four times for nine yards and caught his lone target for nine yards during Thursday's 30-20 victory against the Vikings.Corum's five touches came on just eight snaps on offense, but the rookie out of Michigan averaged just 2.4 YPC. Kyren Williams once again dominated the backfield with 97 yards on 23 carries and has shown no signs of slowing down. On the season, Corum's 20-73-0 line on the ground isn't particularly inspiring, but he'll try to bounce back in a divisional showdown with the Seahawks in Week 9.

Rams' Blake Corum: Limited role on offense
Blake Corum rushed three times for 11 yards during Sunday's 20-15 victory over the Raiders.The Los Angeles Rams as a unit took only 55 snaps on offense, so Corum's usage was capped at just six offensive snaps compared to starter Kyren Williams, who had another big fantasy day with a robust 21-76-2 rushing line. Surprisingly, both Corum and Williams were blanked as pass catchers. Expect Corum's role to stay the same on a short week against a Minnesota run defense that was just gashed by the Lions and their "Sonic and Knuckles" combo of Jahmyr Gibbs (15-116-2) and David Montgomery (9-31-0) in Week 7.

Rams' Blake Corum: Sees 11 snaps on offense
Blake Corum rushed five times for 25 yards and caught one pass for eight yards during Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Packers. He also returned three kicks for 74 yards.Corum's second in-game action on offense was much more impactful than his garbage time usage in Week 2, as he was featured in the Los Angeles Rams' second drive of the game. He led off with a 12-yard rush and ended up with five touches on the drive before Kyren Williams came in and scored a short one-yard touchdown. Ronnie Rivers, who acted as the backup to Williams in the Rams' first four games, was used only on special teams in the loss. Corum's usage after the Week 6 bye will be particularly telling on whether he's officially supplanted Rivers as the primary backup, but with Williams still commanding the lion's share of the rushing attack (22-102-1 on Sunday), Corum's value will be capped barring an injury to the Rams' star running back.
