Jawhar Jordan vs Kyren Williams: Who Should You Start?
There is a real production gap between these two running backs. Kyren Williams (Los Angeles Rams) averaged 14.4 PPG over 17 games in 2025, outscoring Jawhar Jordan (Houston Texans, 6.6 PPG) by 7.8 points per week. That separation would need a significant matchup swing to overcome.
Kyren Williams carries a 7.8-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Jawhar Jordan ran for 193 yards and undefined touchdowns; Kyren Williams posted 1252 and 10. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
One scheduling note: Jawhar Jordan is off Week 14 and Kyren Williams Week 6. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
