The Arizona Cardinals have given up big games to a few players this season. However, thus far, the biggest Cardinals killer has been Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams.
In the Cardinals’ 37-14 loss to the Rams at home on Sunday, Williams was the player of the game.
He had 16 rushing attempts for 143 yards. He caught six passes for 61 yards and two touchdowns. In all, it was 204 total yards from scrimmage and two scores.
It was his first game back from injured reserve.
The last game he played, it was also against the Cardinals in Week 6.
After only having three yards at halftime, he finished with 20 carries for 158 yards and a touchdown. He didn’t even finish the game because he hurt his ankle, which caused him to miss the next four contests.
In two games, Williams 301 rushing yards, 362 total yards and three touchdowns. He averaged 8.6 yards per touch. 359 of those yards came after the first half of the first matchup.
Williams is just in his second year. He could end up being a problem for the Cardinals for a long time.
