Running back Javonte Williams and the Denver Broncos (3-3) host the 2-4 New Orleans Saints at the Superdome on Thursday night to kick off NFL Week 7 action.
Williams will try to assist the Broncos, who just suffered a 23-16 defeat at the hands of the Los Angeles Chargers, in starting a new winning streak against the banged-up Saints team.
Will Javonte Williams play on Thursday night?
Javonte Williams does not appear to have any injury concerns, so it is expected that he will play for the Denver Broncos against the New Orleans Saints on Thursday night.
The Broncos revealed their final injury report on Wednesday ahead of the Week 7 game. Among those on the list were offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey, cornerback Pat Surtain II and linebacker Baron Browning. However, Javonte Williams' name didn't appear on the injury report throughout the week.
Javonte Williams’ fantasy football outlook for Week 7
Despite his lackluster performance in the Broncos' rushing attack this year, Javonte Williams will try to exploit a weakness in New Orleans' run defense tonight. Williams may be relieved to learn that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Saints last weekend, scoring two touchdowns and amassing a massive 277 running yards.
This season, Williams, 24, has not shown himself impressively enough on the ground, but he has been a respectable pass receiver. Despite only gaining 3.6 yards per carry, he has accumulated 20 receptions for 143 yards gained in the air.
That being said, given that Williams has yet to score a touchdown this season, it is reasonable to have doubts about his prospects of scoring against the Saints on Thursday night.
Based on his performance thus far, it's difficult to get enthusiastic about Williams starting fantasy teams this week, but against New Orleans, he might be a reliable RB3.
