Rams' Blake Corum: Hits paydirt against Washington
Rotowire
Corum carried the ball 11 times for 58 yards and a touchdown and failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Commanders.
The Rams' backfield has become a full-fledged timeshare, with Corum getting double-digit carries for a third straight game and out-producing Kyren Williams on the ground in Washington. Corum has gotten into the end zone in all three of those contests, punching in a one-yard score in the third quarter Sunday, and over that stretch he's amassed 224 rushing yards and three TDs while averaging 5.7 yards a carry. With Puka Nacua (knee) headed for an MRI, the Rams could lean even more heavily on their ground attack in a Week 10 tilt against the Cardinals.
Corum rushed 11 times for 73 yards and a touchdown and failed to bring in his only target in the Rams' 24-9 win over the Chargers on Sunday.
Corum led the Rams in rushing yards despite logging five fewer carries than Kyren Williams, and like the latter, Corum was able to get into the end zone. Corum's score came early in the third quarter on a winding 23-yard run, his second in as many games. The third-year back now has double-digit carries in consecutive games for the second time this season, and he's averaging a career-best 5.2 yards per carry heading into a Week 9 road matchup against the Commanders next Sunday.
Rams' Blake Corum: Over 100 scrimmage yards in win
Rotowire
Corum rushed 17 times for 93 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for eight yards in the Rams' 35-21 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Corum led the Rams in rush attempts and was a close runner-up to Kyren Williams in rushing yards. Corum, like Williams, crossed the goal line as well, recording a four-yard touchdown run with 6:34 remaining in the fourth quarter. Corum's carry and yardage totals were also season highs, but given he'd logged single-digit rush attempts in each of the prior four games, he's more likely than not to continue operating in a clear complementary role behind Williams on most weeks.
