2024 Fantasy Outlook
Undrafted out of Fresno State in 2023, Rivers has bounced on and off the practice squad with the Rams the last two years as a reliable depth option, albeit one with limited upside. While he can contribute on all three downs, Rivers lacks the size, speed or power to be a lead back in the NFL. Los Angeles recognizes his limits and deploys him effectively, but the team also understood that he might be overmatched as the No. 2 option behind Kyren Williams and added Boston Scott in free agency before using a third-round pick on Blake Corum.

Overall
One catch in defeat
Rivers caught his only target for no gain and played three snaps on offense during Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
Kyren Williams continued to dominate the touches in the backfield, only yielding three snaps to Rivers before the game was completely out of hand. Rookie Blake Corum had eight rushing attempts, but all eight came on the final drive of the game with the game already wrapped up, so his usage was likely to eat up the remaining clock and protect an already depleted offense from taking any further damage. It appears that, so long as Williams is healthy, Rivers and Corum will be mostly used for special teams, but Rivers is the only other back on the roster to play meaningful snaps through the Rams' first two games.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
More competition for touches
Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports that Cam Akers practiced fully Thursday, and Akers returning to game action could spell the end of Rivers' opportunities with the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Akers had been sitting out with the team searching for a trade partner, but no trade materialized, so the Rams plan to reintegrate the 2020 second-round pick. Rivers had been elevated from the practice squad for the previous game and used in the early-down role occupied by Akers earlier in the season, but with Akers back, the Rams could cut Rivers out of the game plan entirely and simply choose not to elevate him again.
