Javonte Williams Underwhelms In Week 11 Win

Published: Nov 20, 2023 at 05:04 AM
Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams' fantasy arrow was pointing upward coming into Week 11's Sunday night tilt against the Minnesota Vikings after seeing 55 touches and finding the end zone twice through the air the last two games. Unfortunately, he was underwhelming in the 21-20 win, carrying the ball only 11 times for 37 yards (3.4 yards per tote) while catching both of his targets for 16 yards. Denver played from behind for most of this contest, and Williams couldn't get anything going consistently aside from one 15-yard gain in the second half. It was also discouraging that rookie Jaleel McLaughlin and Samaje Perine combined for 12 receptions on 12 targets. Williams needs positive game script to continue being fed as a runner in this offense, and he'll be fighting an uphill battle for RB2 value in fantasy lineups in a bad matchup in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns.
