Rams' Blake Corum: Visits end zone again in Week 6
Rotowire
Corum produced 42 yards on nine carries and reeled in both of his targets for 18 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 18-16 loss against the Cardinals.
Corum was only two touches behind the Rams' clear lead RB Kyren Williams, which marked the second-smallest gap between the two in a game this season. Moreover, Corum took advantage of Sunday's slightly expanded workload by reaching the end zone for the second time in as many contests. So far, his 56 touches have equated to 314 yards from scrimmage and two TDs, and he'll aim for another somewhat even split with Williams next Sunday at Las Vegas.

Rams' Blake Corum: Sleeper RBs
Rotowire
The Rams are favored by almost two touchdowns at home against the Cardinals in Week 6. There should be chances for Corum to get some additional touches in this matchup, and he's worth using as a flex option in all leagues. He has four games this season with at least eight total touches, and he scored at least 10.2 PPR points in two of those outings. In two games against Arizona in 2025, Corum combined for 25 carries for 187 yards and two touchdowns and two catches for 13 yards.

Rams' Blake Corum: Efficient with eight touches
Rotowire
Corum rushed five times for 19 yards and a touchdown and brought in three of four targets for 53 yards in the Rams' 37-34 overtime loss to the Bills on Monday night.
Corum was 11 carries behind Kyren Williams, but the former managed to record his first rushing touchdown of the season on a one-yard run early in the second half. Corum also posted a season high in receiving yards with a big boost from a team-high 34-yard catch, making it a serviceable fantasy night overall. Corum is likely to continue in a complementary role during a Week 6 divisional home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday.

Rams' Blake Corum: Non-factor again in Week 4 win
Rotowire
Corum rushed five times for just 14 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Eagles. He added one catch for seven yards on two targets.
Kyren Williams has greatly outplayed Corum through the first four weeks of the season, and that continued against Philly, as Williams turned 16 carries into 80 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught 10 passes for 67 yards on 13 targets in the passing game. Williams ended up out-snapping Corum 70 to 13, leaving the latter as nothing more than a fantasy bench stash.

Rams' Blake Corum: Limited workload during SNF
Rotowire
Corum rushed six times for 15 yards and caught two of four targets for no gain during Sunday night's 30-26 loss to Denver.
Corum saw nine less carries than backfield mate Kyren Williams in Week 3, the widest discrepancy between the two in a contest so far this season. Corum did see his highest amount of targets in a contest since he saw four targets against the Colts in Week 4 of the 2025 campaign, though he didn't really do much with his two catches Sunday. The running back has now rushed 28 times for 148 yards while catching three of five targets for 13 yards over three games to open the 2026 season.

Rams' Blake Corum: Even timeshare with Williams
Rotowire
Corum rushed 12 times for 79 yards and brought in his only target for 13 yards in the Rams' 28-6 win over the Giants on Monday night. He also fumbled once but recovered.
Corum and Kyren Williams had the exact same number of carries, and the former was just six rushing yards shy of his teammate's total. Corum also was efficient on his one reception, and the 2024 third-round pick, who also recorded 10 carries in Week 1 against the 49ers, appears set to work as a legitimate 1A option in the Rams backfield moving forward. Corum next takes aim at a tough Broncos defense in a Week 3 road showdown on Sunday night.

Rams' Blake Corum: Sleeper RBs
Rotowire
Corum ran well in Week 1 against the 49ers with 10 carries for 54 yards. He had no targets against San Francisco and won't be a factor in the passing game behind Kyren Williams, but Corum is still worth using as a flex option in Week 2 against the Giants. I'm expecting the Rams offense to rebound after a lackluster performance in Australia, and Corum will hopefully find the end zone in this game.

Rams' Blake Corum: Impressive with limited touches
Rotowire
Corum rushed 10 times for 54 yards and wasn't targeted during the Rams' 27-7 Week 1 loss to the 49ers in Melbourne, Australia.
Corum's backfield mate Kyren Williams worked as the starting running back and logged his first carry on the Rams' second play from scrimmage, but Corum garnered his first touch to start Los Angeles' second drive and ripped off a nine-yard run. The third-year pro would go on to outpace Williams by 13 rushing yards on one fewer carry, although Corum's lack of a pass-game role was a disappointment. Nevertheless, it appears preseason talk about an even closer division of labor between the two backs this season could have some credibility as a Week 2 home matchup against the Giants on Monday night, Sept. 21 approaches.

Rams' Blake Corum: Sits out preseason in advance of Year 3
Rotowire
Corum was rested for all three of the Rams' preseason contests.
Though Kyren Williams remains listed as the top running back on the Rams' unofficial depth chart, head coach Sean McVay's decision to hold out Corum throughout the preseason along with many of the team's key players suggests that the 24-year-old is essentially being treated as a co-starter heading into his third NFL season. After seeing limited action as a rookie in 2024, Corum doubled up his snap count in Year 2, finishing the regular season with 746 yards and six touchdowns on 145 carries while chipping in eight receptions for 36 yards on 14 targets over 17 games. While Williams remains the better bet to lead the Los Angeles backfield in carries in 2026, Corum could be primed to take on at least a slightly larger share of the workload after he was highly efficient with his opportunities a season ago.

Rams' Blake Corum: Primed for key role again
Rotowire
Corum remains positioned atop the running back depth chart alongside starter Kyren Williams following the Rams' offseason program, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.
Corum, a 2024 third-round pick, did little as a rookie but carved out a notable role in 2025. While suiting up for all 17 regular-season games last year, Corum rushed 145 times for 746 yards and six touchdowns. He remained a limited contributor as a receiver, however, totaling just eight catches for 36 yards. Corum is arguably the most explosive runner in Los Angeles' backfield, but Williams remains entrenched as the lead option due to his three-down skill set. Even in a complementary role, Corum projects to remain productive and would carry significant upside if an opportunity for a larger workload emerged.

Rams' Blake Corum: Falls out of favor Sunday
Rotowire
Corum rushed six times for 19 yards and did not receive a target in Sunday's 20-17 overtime win against the Bears.
Lead back Kyren Williams (21-87-2) stole the show on offense while Corum struggled to get off the ground in Sunday's playoff victory. Corum had registered double-digit carries in five of Los Angeles' previous six contests dating back to Week 14 of the regular season, so this unusual dip in usage may have been matchup-related. Given recent trends, it wouldn't be surprising to see Corum resume splitting backfield work with Williams as the Rams prepare to face the Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game next Sunday.

Rams' Blake Corum: Near-even split with Williams
Rotowire
Corum rushed the ball 11 times for 45 yards in Saturday's 34-31 wild-card win over the Panthers. He added two receptions on two targets for 13 yards.
Corum worked in a nearly even split with Kyren Williams, totaling 13 touches to Williams' 15. Corum was moderately efficient but was unable to break any big gains, as his longest rush went for only eight yards. While Williams will likely have the better of the role in the divisional round, Corum should retain a significant workload.

Rams' Blake Corum: Handles 14 touches Sunday
Rotowire
Corum (ankle) took 13 carries for 59 yards while catching his only target for 10 yards in Sunday's 37-20 win over Arizona.
Corum and starter Kyren Williams were both dealing with minor ankle injuries sustained in last week's loss to the Seahawks. Both tailbacks were able to suit up after being limited during the practice week, with both runners handling double-digit carries in the final game of the regular season. Corum saw his role expand as a sophomore, generating a career-best 145-746-6 rushing line while appearing in every game for the Rams in 2025. The 24-year-old Corum will likely continue to split backfield work behind Williams against the Panthers in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

Rams' Blake Corum: Suiting up Sunday
Rotowire
Corum (ankle) is listed as active Sunday versus the Cardinals, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Corum exhibited a visible limp as he went to the sideline last Monday in Atlanta and didn't return to action due to an ankle injury. Top RB Kyren Williams also came out of that game with an ankle issue, and while he was listed as limited during the entirety of Week 18 prep, Corum was contained to one limited showing Friday, leaving both players questionable for Sunday. Williams and Corum will be available to the Rams backfield along with backup Ronnie Rivers, but Corum's workload remains to be seen.

Rams' Blake Corum: Questionable after limited practice
Rotowire
Corum (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against Arizona, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Corum was forced out of Monday's loss to Atlanta early due to a right ankle injury and was listed as a non-participant Wednesday and Thursday, so it's encouraging to see him back on the practice field Friday. Meanwhile, top RB Kyren Williams (ankle) also is listed as questionable after having logged a trio of limited sessions, though head coach Sean McVay said he's expected to play Week 18, per Grosbard. McVay already has stated that the Rams' starters will play Sunday regardless of whether the team has anything to play for in terms of playoff standing, but Corum's injury could be one that motivates the team to err on the side of caution.

Rams' Blake Corum: Returning to practice Friday
Rotowire
Corum (ankle) will return to practice Friday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Coach Sean McVay said he'll play his starters even if the Rams have nothing to gain or lose in terms of playoff seeding, but it does seem likely that the team will be cautious with borderline cases of injured players. McVay suggested Kyren Williams (ankle) is expected to play, whereas Corum is up in the air after his early exit from Monday's loss at Atlanta.

Rams' Blake Corum: Another DNP
Rotowire
Corum (ankle) didn't take part in Thursday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Corum made an early exit from Monday's loss in Atlanta due to an ankle injury that so far hasn't allowed him to mix into any drills in the meantime. He'll have one more chance to do so, or else he and fellow RB Kyren Williams (ankle, LP so far this week) may enter the weekend with designations for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Rams' Blake Corum: Sustains ankle injury
Rotowire
Corum went to the locker room during the second quarter of Monday's game against the Falcons due to a right ankle injury and is questionable to return, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Corum limped to the sideline following a two-yard carry late in the second quarter and was evaluated by medical staff on the sideline before leaving the field. Kyren Williams will take on an even larger role in Corum's absence, and Ronnie Rivers should be in the mix for backfield snaps if Corum is unable to return.

Rams' Blake Corum: Gets into end zone Thursday
Rotowire
Corum rushed 14 times for 48 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for 13 yards in the Rams' 38-37 overtime loss to the Seahawks on Thursday night.
Corum still logged nine fewer carries than backfield mate Kyren Williams, but he was the only one of the two to get into the end zone. Corum scored his sixth touchdown of the season on a one-yard run in the third quarter directly following an interception of Sam Darnold, and the second-year back logged a career-high carry total. Corum has now recorded double-digit rush attempts in three straight games and has scored five times over the last four contests, giving him plenty of standalone value going into a Week 17 road matchup against the Falcons on Monday night, Dec. 29.
