Damien Williams, RB, Miami Dolphins

Damien Williams has only out-snapped Kenyan Drake in one of the Miami Dolphins' three games since Jay Ajayi was traded, but the difference hasn't been big. There's also some reason to be encouraged about the role he will play this week.

The games in which Drake played more snaps were decided by 10 or fewer points, while a big blowout in Week 10 led to a more pass-heavy game script, which also led to more snaps for Williams. Miami is a 17-point underdog against the New England Patriots in this one, so we'll likely see a bump in Williams' role here.

Williams has already seen reasonable volume, averaging 8.7 carries and 3.3 targets per game over his last three. He also gets a bump from a good matchup, as the Patriots are allowing top-10 fantasy production to running backs.
