As the Los Angeles Rams prepare for their Week 10 contest against the Arizona Cardinals, they have to ponder what the future of their offense will look like as Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, Jordan Whittington, Steve Avila, and Terrance Ferguson deal with multi-week injuries.

With such losses to both their wide receiver and tight end rooms, many wonder if the Rams are exploring the idea of utilizing running backs Kyren Williams and Blake Corum on the field together. The idea comes as the team is desperate to replace the lost production at receiver and tight end. The tandem of Corum and Williams are the Rams' most effective and available playmakers, which is what makes this idea intriguing.

Head coach Sean McVay was asked about using two-back sets, and he didn't shoot it down.

“I think you explore everything," said McVay. "Honestly, it's really our job to figure out how do you maximize the pieces and the players that you do have? I think that's what your job is as a coach. I always respect the people the most from afar that make the most out of whatever circumstances they are. They're putting players in positions to be successful, to allow their skill set to shine, but not pigeonhole them into they can only do this. I think our job is to be able to figure that out and we've certainly been working hard to do that.”

McVay seems open to any idea that might work as the team looks to pick up a critical fourth straight win to stay within striking distance of a playoff spot as their schedule toughens after the bye.

Williams and Corum have combined for 1,040 rushing yards this season, adding 10 rushing touchdowns to their tally. Williams ranks second on the team in receptions behind Nacua, while Corum is ranked eighth in receptions and receiving yards.

According to Sharp Football Analysis, the Rams are the only team in the NFL not to run a single play with two running backs on the field together since 2021. Every other team has at least 69 such plays, but perhaps desperation will change things for the Rams.
