The running back room for the Los Angeles Rams has quickly grown crowded.
Starter Kyren Williams showed over the 2024 season that he can be an every-down workhorse, and he effectively crowded out last year’s rookie third-round pick Blake Corum. The Rams may extend Williams’ contract ahead of training camp and keep him in the fold for the foreseeable future.
2025 brings a new threat to Corum’s playing time in fourth-round draftee Jarquez Hunter from Auburn. Hunter is a departure from the mold that Williams and Corum bring to the table. The Rams are hoping that Hunter can introduce an element of explosiveness into the running game and turn well-blocked plays into long gains and touchdowns.
