Karlos Williams could get more work in Week 4, per report, is a must-add for fantasy owners

The Bills continue to wait and see when LeSean McCoy will be over his hamstring injury, however, they have a more than capable running back waiting in the fold. We break down the fantasy implications.

Buffalo Bills running back Karlos Williams could be in line for more work in the coming weeks, according to a report by Tyler Dunne of The Buffalo News. LeSean McCoy continues to battle a hamstring injury, one that's limited his practice time, as well as his in-game effectiveness.

Sunday's blowout 41-14 win over the Miami Dolphins provided the latest evidence of that, as McCoy totaled 26 yards on 12 touches, while Williams logged 110 yards on the same amount. Each running back also scored a touchdown during Sunday's win.

Fantasy impact: Dunne's report indicated that there's already uncertainty surrounding McCoy's availability for Week 4, when the New York Giants come to town. An out of conference game would be the time to rest a starter if need be, and Bills' brass could be gearing up to do that with Nov. 8 being their next divisional square-off.

Williams can be considered in the RB2 conversation if McCoy is rested in Week 4, but both would make for dicey flex plays if they both see the field. Until McCoy gets a clean bill of health, Williams needs to be owned in leagues of all formats.
