Andy Reid: RB Damien Williams is 'the full time starter'

Jul 10, 2019

Andy Reid says that Damien Williams "will be the full-time starter for the year" and that he "has earned the right to be that guy." Reid goes onto say that Williams "wants to do this thing" and has taken on the challenge to be the starter.

Fantasy Impact:

Damien Williams spent four years with the Dolphins, averaging under four-yards-per-carry, but exploded with Kansas City for 416 yards and three touchdowns on 73 touches after Kareem Hunt was released last season. The question is, can Williams keep up that kind of pace for a whole season and will Carlos Hyde be able to cut into his workload? Those are legitimate questions, but Williams has the job right now, has proven he works well in Kansas City's offense and should continue to be put into advantageous positions under Reid.

The Saints officially listed QB Derek Carr (left hand/concussion) as doubtful for Sunday vs. Washington. Jake Haener will make his first NFL start.

RB Alvin Kamara (illness) is off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Kendre Miller

Fantasy Impact:

It would have been an easy click for a Kendre Miller week if Kamara were forced to miss, but this puts the kibosh on that. Fire Kamara up as an RB2 this week in a game that may feature him even more than usual with no Carr.

The Seahawks list RB Kenneth Walker III (calf) as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like a clear runway for another Charbonnet week in what should be a tightly contested game against the Packers at home. Fire him up as a fringe RB1/2.
