The Los Angeles Rams have activated running back Kyren Williams from injured reserve. Williams injured his ankle in Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals and has missed the Rams' last four games. In six games this season, Williams has 456 rushing yards on 97 carries and 105 receiving yards on 13 catches. He has seven total touchdowns (six rushing, one receiving). Head coach Sean McVay said the Rams want to "be able to give [Williams] a good workload" in his return against Arizona, but want to be cognizant of the high number of snaps he was playing before he injured his ankle. Rams running back Royce Freeman, who was signed from the practice squad after Williams' injury, will serve as Williams' backup on Sunday.
