Kyren Williams is on the verge of returning to the Rams’ backfield on Sundays. Sean McVay told reporters Wednesday that he believes Williams could be active against the Cardinals this weekend, which would be his first game since injuring his ankle in Week 1.

“I think there’s a good chance he’ll be up this week,” McVay said.

It's looking like a crowded backfield for the Rams. It's possible the team eases Williams back into action, but if he's still on your wire it's worth adding an RB with some upside and taking a wait-and-see approach. As the story said, the Rams traded up to select Williams in the fifth round of the draft this year. He missed most of the summer with a broken foot before injuring his ankle in the season opener against the Bills.
