Ravens: Ty’Son Williams needs to be a focal point of the offense

Ty’Son Williams was a dud in the Baltimore Ravens game against the Detroit Lions in Week 3, but don’t blame the running back. Blame the offensive gameplan.

Williams was primed to take the No. 1 running back position in 2021, with veterans Latavius Murray and Devonta Freeman brought on to mix in behind him. At least that’s what we thought.

After the Ravens’ narrow win against Detroit, Baltimore’s running game — or lack thereof — is completely baffling.

Williams rushed just five times for 22 yards and couldn’t haul in his only target. Murray outran him with 28 yards on seven carries; Freeman also got touches and finished with eight yards on three carries.
