Blake Corum's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has gotten early work in each of the Rams' last two games, but he remains a longshot to emerge as a strong fantasy play this Thursday against the 49ers. Corum has exactly eight carries in each of the last two weeks, and against the Bills, four of those came in the red zone. He wasn't able to get into the end zone, though, and is still searching for his first NFL touchdown. He played only 17% of snaps after playing 32% in the previous week and remains only moderately involved behind workhorse back Kyren Williams. At this point, Corum is mostly just a Williams handcuff and comes into this week as RotoBaller's RB60, well off the radar even as a flex play aside from in the deepest of leagues.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum totaled 34 rushing yards on eight carries against the Bills on Sunday, with four of those carries coming in the red zone. The rookie played a season-high 32% of snaps in Week 13 against the Saints and followed that up by playing 17% of snaps in Week 14 against the Bills. He is still in search of his first NFL touchdown but his role is trending up heading into the stretch run for Los Angeles. This week, the Rams face the 49ers on Thursday Night Football in an important division game. Corum will continue to be an important backup for Kyren Williams and a great handcuff option for Williams owners. He hasn't had enough success to have standalone starting value in standard leagues quite yet, but his role going forward is definitely worth watching.

Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Blake Corum remains a top stash candidate but should not be in any starting lineups this weekend when he faces the New Orleans Saints. While Corum has continued to be deployed as the No.2 running back in Los Angeles, Kyren Williams has dominated most of the work, leaving only a handful of carries for Corum each week. Over his past four contests, the Michigan product has averaged just 2.3 attempts per game while tallying 3.7 yards per carry. In addition, he has only logged double-digit snaps once during this stretch. While fantasy managers should continue to stash Corum on their bench as he could be a lottery ticket league winner if Williams were to miss time, he is unplayable in all formats, given his minimal role in the Los Angeles offense.
