The Rams used a third-round pick on running back Blake Corum with the idea that they’d use him to share reps and carries with Kyren Williams. On Sunday night, that didn’t happen.

Williams had 21 touches (with 18 carries). Corum had none. That’s because Williams was on the field for 91 percent of the offensive snaps (71 total). And Corum was there for none.

So what happened?

“I think each game is going to be its own entity,” coach Sean McVay told reporters on Monday, the day after the 26-20 overtime loss to the Lions. “It was a very unique circumstance because when we got so many of our [offensive] linemen banged up, it limited some of the different — basically, we didn’t operate off anything that our game plan was."

Corum was supposed to be able to spell Williams this season because the Rams gave Williams such a big workload last season. Williams was one of the top fantasy backs as a result, but the plan seemed to be to give Williams less of a workload to help keep him healthy. McVay went on to say he also wants to get Rivers more carries, but in Week 1 there were circumstances that kept guys on the field they trusted. Despite the preseason hype around Corum, right now the Rams just trust Williams more, and it seems like Rivers more as well. That will likely change at some point as talent usually wins out, and Corum should at least become the team's RB2. For now, Corum owners can't trust him in lineups until we see a lot more in terms of fantasy production.

Rams coach Sean McVay tells reporters that RB Kyren Williams has a foot issue and won’t take part in the offseason program this spring. He should be back for training camp.

You have to wonder if the team had some inklings about this prior to the NFL Draft. Regardless, Corum is a very interesting target in early best ball drafts.

Former Eagles running back Boston Scott reached an agreement on a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Rams.

The Rams backfield now boasts Kyren Williams, Blake Corum, and Scott, amongst others.

The backfield is a little loaded in Los Angeles at this point in the offseason, but we can expect at least one cut from this group over the summer. Scott was once perceived as a receiving threat but accrued only six targets over ten games last season with the Eagles. He has no standalone value in fantasy.

Rams running back Ronnie Rivers, who has been on IR, has been designated to return to practice per team.

Rivers last played in Week 6 and was the main backup to Williams. When both backs landed on IR, the Rams went on an RB shopping spree and brought in the likes of Darrell Henderson, Freeman and Myles Gaskin. The team has since cut Henderson and Gaskin leaving Freeman as the main backup to Williams. A possible Rivers return could put him back in the RB2 spot, but that remains to be seen.

The Rams announced on Tuesday that they have waived Henderson off of their roster.

Henderson was signed to the active roster early this month and he ran 46 times for 112 yards and two touchdowns in four appearances. He also caught 10 passes for 103 yards. But Williams is expected to be back for Week 12 and it looks like the Rams will go with Freeman as the RB2, at least until Rivers comes off the IR.

Sean McVay said the Rams will get RB Kyren Williams back against the Cardinals.

Williams has been on IR with an ankle injury, but because of the bye it's been five weeks since he was hurt. Williams should be ready to go in a good matchup in Week 12. With Rivers still on IR, the backup duties will go to either Henderson or Freeman or a combination of both. It may not be fair to expect a huge workload from Williams his first week back in the fold, but he should at least have higher-end RB2 value vs. the Cardinals.

The Rams are adding another running back to help offset the injuries to Kyren Williams and Ronnie Rivers.

Los Angeles is signing Myles Gaskin off of the Vikings’ practice squad, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

It's been reported Evans will get the start in Week 7, assuming Williams is out with the ankle injury. Freeman was signed from the practice squad and will likely get work as well. The Rams have been busy building up their RBs, they also signed old friend Henderson today to the practice squad. Williams is expected to miss this week but Rivers could end up on IR and miss 4-5 weeks according to reports.

The Rams signed RB Darrell Henderson to the practice squad. They also signed Royce Freeman to the active roster.

Freeman will likely split time with Evans this week, who is rumored to be the starter in Week 7 with Williams unlikely to play and Rivers out. Henderson could stick around for a while as Rivers is expected to miss 4-5 weeks and could be an IR candidate. The Rams are hoping Williams misses a week at most so there could be more RB shuffling over the next week in LA.

If Kyren Williams can't play against the Steelers, rookie sixth-round pick Zach Evans will likely get the start at running back.

"Obviously you saw Zach Evans get the first carries," McVay said.

McVay said the Rams are still "working through" the plan without Williams and Rivers, the story said. The Rams also have Freeman on their practice squad and he'll likely be involved against the Steelers. According to the story, McVay added there are different things the team is working through right now. The Rams could also make a move and bring in another RB with Rivers expected to miss multiple weeks.

The MRI results for backup Ronnie Rivers were not as promising. He has a Grade 3 PCL sprain and is out 4-5 weeks.

The story said an IR stint is probably likely for Rivers. As we stated in an earlier report, the Rams are possibly looking at an RB group of Freeman and Evans for at least Week 7.
