Williams' perimeter role faces Rams' elite coverage despite recent role growth.

Last week, Williams' role grew with a 20.7% target share (tied for team lead) and 27.8% first-read share, finishing with five receptions and 54 receiving yards with zero red zone targets and one deep target. He ran 60.7% of his routes from the perimeter. The source notes Williams could be a difference-making player down the stretch but worries about his stat line for Week 9. The Rams secondary has the fifth-highest two-high rate (62.2%). Over the last two games against two-high, Williams has an 18% TPRR with 1.68 YPRR, and 17% TPRR with 1.33 YPRR overall this season. Over the last five games, the Rams have held perimeter wide receivers to the sixth-fewest yards per target and fifth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity.
