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

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) did not practice on Wednesday. Williams has not played since Week 8 and his status for Week 11 is not off to an auspicious start. Williams has been a nonfactor for fantasy football all season. With starting running back Alvin Kamara seeing high volume, Williams has not received much work in 2024. Williams has 124 rushing yards and one touchdown this season. His 3.88 average yards per carry is also very poor. Williams' days as a fantasy-relevant player with the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers are long behind us.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) is officially inactive for Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons. He had been listed as questionable. The veteran running back logged two limited practices before downgrading to a non-participant Friday. He has appeared in eight games this season, tallying just 124 rushing yards and 21 receiving yards. With Williams sidelined and Kendre Miller (hamstring) on injured reserve, the Saints will call upon a combination of Taysom Hill and Jordan Mims to back up Alvin Kamara on Sunday. Kamara is the only Saints running back currently on the fantasy radar.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) is not expected to play on Sunday against the division-rival Atlanta Falcons in Week 10 after aggravating his groin injury in practice on Friday, according to interim head coach Darren Rizzi. With Williams likely to be inactive this weekend, it will mean an elevated role for Jordan Mims as the team's No. 2 RB behind workhorse Alvin Kamara. Mims will be unlikely to see many backfield touches as long as Kamara remains healthy, and the Saints also figure to utilize tight end Taysom Hill more as a wild-card offensive player with receiver Chris Olave (concussion) already ruled out. Williams has had 32 rushing attempts for 124 yards and one touchdown in eight games in 2024, adding four catches for 21 yards, so he hasn't had any real standalone fantasy appeal behind Kamara.UPDATE: Williams has been officially ruled out for Week 10.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) won't play on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. The veteran was doubtful, so most had already assumed he wouldn't be on the field for the divisional clash. But with Kendre Miller (hamstring) landing on the Injured Reserve list, Alvin Kamara should see more than his usual allotment of carries, which makes him an even bigger threat against a Panthers defense that has struggled all year. There's also a chance Taysom Hill and Jordan Mims get some action out of the backfield, giving them some value for those in need of a desperation streaming option.

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) is officially listed as doubtful for the team's Week 9 road tilt against the Carolina Panthers. Williams logged a week of limited practice sessions due to a groin injury he picked up, and his status this Sunday is not looking good. With teammate Kendre Miller (hamstring) ruled out for the contest, running back Alvin Kamara could be the only show in town in the Saints' backfield when they line up against their division rivals. Even if Williams suits up, he won't be a recommended fantasy play, as he's no more than a change-of-pace option behind Kamara. Expect hybrid offensive weapon Taysom Hill to chip in as well, especially if the 29-year-old is inactive.
