In line for lead role Saturday With Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) ruled out for Saturday's regular-season finale against the Broncos, Williams is in line to head Kansas City's backfield in the contest.

Big game in lead role Williams rushed 14 times for 88 yards and two touchdowns while catching all three of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Bengals.

Impact Williams excelled in the lead role with Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) inactive. He benefited from Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes being ruled just short of the goal line on two separate second-quarter drives, as the running back scored a one-yard touchdown on the ensuing play in both cases. If Edwards-Helaire can't go in the season finale against Denver, Williams should continue to lead the Chiefs backfield as Kansas City attempts to secure the top seed in the AFC.

Increased workload on tap Williams could be in line for a larger workload Sunday at Cincinnati if Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) is sidelined, ESPN.com reports.

Impact Edwards-Helaire departed this past Sunday's win against the Steelers early in the second half and eventually was diagnosed with a bruised shoulder that has left him week-to-week. With the Chiefs milking the clock down the stretch, Williams finished with 85 yards from scrimmage on 11 carries and three catches, while Derrick Gore went for 104 yards on 12 rushes and three receptions. When Edwards-Helaire sat out Weeks 6-10, Williams was the clear beneficiary out of Kansas City's backfield, averaging 18.6 touches for 94 yards per game while scoring three TDs. But with their top RB potentially down, the Chiefs may operate in more of a timeshare between Williams and Gore to ensure the health of both with the postseason now in sight.

Sees escalated usage Williams ran for 55 yards on 11 carries and caught three passes for 30 yards on three targets in Sunday's win over Pittsburgh.

Impact Williams led the Chiefs in rushing yardage in a game during which starter Clyde Edwards-Helaire left with a shoulder/collarbone injury that will require further inspection before the Chiefs know its severity. If Edwards-Helaire misses time then Williams could be next in line, though fellow running back Derrick Gore (12 carries for 43 yards, three catches for 61 yards on three targets Sunday) also made his presence felt against the Steelers. The Chiefs face the Bengals in Week 17.

Only two touches in OT win Williams rushed twice for five yards and failed to bring in his only target during the Chiefs' 34-28 overtime win over the Chargers on Thursday night.

Impact Williams was a virtual afterthought in the comeback win, although to be fair, the ground attack largely was as a whole. The Chiefs played with a deficit for significant portions of the game, and coach Andy Reid opted to lean heavily on his top three most explosive weapons in Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce. Williams has now logged just 14 total carries and seven receptions in the four games since backfield mate Clyde Edwards-Helaire returned from an IR stint due to a knee injury, dampening his prospects heading into a Week 16 home matchup against the Steelers a week from Sunday.

Finds end zone against Raiders Williams carried the ball twice for eight yards in Sunday's 48-9 win over the Raiders. He added three receptions for 31 yards and a touchdown.

Impact Williams was out-carried by both Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Derrick Gore, though the latter's usage was largely due to garbage time. Williams did his primary damage through the air, with the highlight coming on a 23-yard touchdown reception late in the first quarter. Despite posting over 80 yards in Kansas City's Week 13 contest and registering strong results Sunday, Williams has not surpassed eight total touches in any of his three games since Edwards-Helaire returned.
