RB · Los Angeles Rams vs Denver Broncos · 62 graded snaps
Strong
Williams powered the offense with elite rushing vision and clutch late-game receiving, earning an 80.8 overall mark despite clear pass-protection struggles.
Williams dominated on the ground with an elite 91 rushing grade, keyed by physical short-yardage conversions and an explosive 30-yard interior run at Q1 1:19. His 85 receiving grade reflected critical versatility, converting a 4th-down catch at Q1 7:30 before generating back-to-back 19- and 20-yard receptions in the final minute of Q4. However, pass protection (57 facet) proved to be his primary liability, highlighted at Q2 0:40 when he was driven backward into Matthew Stafford to allow a quarterback hit.
Strengths
Inside zone vision and burst
