Kyren Williams vs Zach Charbonnet: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Kyren Williams and Zach Charbonnet for your lineup, you are not alone. Kyren Williams finished the 2025 season at 14.4 PPG for the Los Angeles Rams (17 games), and Zach Charbonnet averaged 10.7 for the Seattle Seahawks (16 games).
That 3.7-point weekly advantage for Kyren Williams is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Kyren Williams ran for 1252 yards and 10 touchdowns; Zach Charbonnet posted 730 and 12. 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: Kyren Williams is off Week 6 and Zach Charbonnet Week 10. 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.
