Jamaal Williams's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) is officially active for Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after logging a full practice on Friday. The 29-year-old has just 124 rushing yards, 21 receiving yards, and one touchdown this season. He's listed as the Saints' No. 2 running back but could actually be third in the pecking order behind both Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill. Williams should be left on fantasy waivers in most leagues.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams was sidelined for the three games preceding the team's Week 12 bye due to a groin injury. On the positive side, Williams was able to practice in full on Friday after logging two limited sessions in the runup Week 13's matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are allowing a generous 4.59 yards per carry to opposing running backs but the bulk of that work is expected to go to Alvin Kamara or tight end Taysom Hill, who took on the backup running back role during Williams' absence. Before the injury, Williams was seldom used and when he was given the ball he was largely ineffective. Through his eight active games, he has 32 carries for 124 yards and one touchdown. Williams can safely be left on the waiver wire in Week 13.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) and tight end Foster Moreau (shoulder) were both limited participants for a second consecutive practice on Thursday. Williams has missed three games in a row, but it appears he has a chance to return in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams. If so, he would back up Alvin Kamara but remain off the fantasy radar in most leagues. Kamara will handle the bulk of New Orleans' carries, and Taysom Hill could also get involved out of the backfield. Meanwhile, Moreau hasn't missed a game this season, but he's had a quieter role on offense, catching just 15 passes for 217 yards and three touchdowns through 11 games. He can be left on waivers in most fantasy leagues, especially as long as Juwan Johnson is healthy.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) was unable to practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 11 against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. This will be Williams' third straight game missed due to a groin injury. Lead back Alvin Kamara had already been a workhorse back for the Saints before Williams' injury, but it ensures the 29-year-old will continue to see the lion's share of touches for the Saints, although Taysom Hill could be a bit more involved against Cleveland. Jordan Mims will operate as Kamara's primary backup with Kendre Miller (hamstring) still on Injured Reserve. At best, Williams is a handcuff option for fantasy managers in deep leagues that have Kamara rostered. Williams only has 32 carries for 124 yards and a touchdown in eight games played in 2024 in his second year with the Saints.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) was not seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Williams has not played in each of the team's last two games, and with no practice yet after two days, he's once again trending towards not playing this Sunday in Week 11 against the visiting Cleveland Browns. Kendre Miller (hamstring) is on Injured Reserve, so the Saints are down to Jordan Mims as the backup to workhorse back Alvin Kamara. Tight end Taysom Hill has gotten more involved in the backfield as well, but Kamara will most likely continue to see the lion's share of opportunities for the Saints. The 29-year-old Williams has only 32 carries for 124 yards (3.9 yards per carry) and one touchdown in 2024 and is only a handcuff for Kamara in deeper fantasy leagues.
