No. 3 Jamaal Williams vs. Washington

Back to this game! Jamaal Williams is an underrated back IMO and I like him here against Washington. More than Peterson I might add.

It’s a duo backfield with Williams and Montgomery but I think Williams wins out for carries this week against the Redskins. He had 16 carries for 59 yards against the Vikings in the tie but even with Jones being back for the Packers, these two will see most of the action.

Rodgers is still dealing with the knee issues which are a concern but he’s still been able to sling the ball. Williams can catch too. He had 25 receptions in 2017 for 262 yards and a pair of scores but hasn’t found similar success thus far. I think this week with the carries being distributed between the two, Williams makes his way into the flat and into the secondary more often.
