• Packers' Jamaal Williams: Remains No. 2 option in backfield

  1D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Williams had four carries for 17 yards in Sunday's victory over the Falcons. Williams was surprisingly the Packers' primary running back in the first quarter of Sunday's game, but that had more to do with interim head coach Joe Philbin scripting a pass-happy attack early than Williams overtaking fellow running back Aaron Jones. By the end of the game, Jones still played 42 snaps to Williams' 24 and tallied 20 touches to Williams' four. Williams was more involved the last two weeks after playing less than 25 percent of the snaps between Weeks 10-12, but he remains the clear No. 2 option in the Packers backfield.

• Packers' Jamaal Williams: Sees boost in activity

  8D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Williams had seven carries for 13 yards and four receptions for 14 yards in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals. He also returned three kicks for 72 yards in the game. The 11 touches were just three fewer than Williams tallied in the previous four games, but he was not able to do much with the added opportunities. Fellow running back Aaron Jones had a season-low 36 yards on the ground Sunday, but he still had 15 touches and found paydirt, so he still had a more productive day. Changes could occur in the Packers' offense with Mike McCarthy no longer calling the shots, but Jones remains the top option in the Green Bay backfield. Both running backs will have a nice matchup in Week 14, though, as the Packers square off against a Falcons squad that has allowed opposing running backs to rush for an average of 146.5 yards over the last four games.

• Packers' Jamaal Williams: Another quiet game

  15D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Williams had one carry for five yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Vikings. It was another quiet week for Williams, who was on the field for just 13 offensive snaps. Meanwhile, Aaron Jones played 40 snaps and had another productive outing (17 carries for 72 yards and a touchdown), so don't expect much to change with the Packers' backfield situation in Week 13 against the Cardinals.

• Packers' Jamaal Williams: Minor role Week 10

  29D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Williams had three carries for three yards in Sunday's victory over the Dolphins. Fellow running back Aaron Jones had his best game of the season Sunday, which resulted in Williams playing only a bit role. Jones has tallied 41 carries to Williams' 14 since the Packers' Week 7 bye, so it's clear who the man in the Packers backfield is these days. The two backs had been playing relatively even roles earlier in the season, but consider Jones the clear starter at this point, with Williams filling a complementary role.

• Packers' Jamaal Williams: Racks up 54 yards from scrimmage

  11/05/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Williams had seven carries for 34 yards and two receptions for 20 yards in Sunday's loss to the Patriots. Williams made the most of his touches and put up his most yards from scrimmage since Week 2, but his overall output still did not do much for fantasy players. The Packers used just two running backs Sunday following the trade of Ty Montgomery last week, but Williams worked as the clear No. 2 option behind Aaron Jones, who totaled 43 snaps to Williams' 31 and also clearly topped Williams in all of touches (16), carries (14) and yards from scrimmage (86).
