In August 2025, Kyren Williams signed a three-year, $33 million contract extension with the Los Angeles Rams, securing $23 million guaranteed. This deal ranks him seventh among running backs in annual salary.
For the 2025 season, Williams is projected to achieve 961 rushing yards on 215 carries and score 9 rushing touchdowns. Additionally, he is expected to contribute 39 receptions for 282 receiving yards and 2 receiving touchdowns.
Despite competition from Blake Corum and Jarquez Hunter, Williams remains the primary RB1 under Sean McVay. The Rams' offensive line improvements, particularly with Coleman Shelton's 74.6 run-blocking grade, bolster his prospects.
Fantasy-wise, Williams is a top-15 RB, projected for 13.9 total touchdowns, making him a high-end RB2/fantasy RB1 fringe. His role as a feature back ensures a high weekly floor, though Davante Adams may slightly cap his touchdown ceiling in red-zone scenarios.
