The Los Angeles Rams are not getting the kind of production they hoped from running back Kyren Williams in Week 17.

As we head into the half, Williams has tallied just four carries for eight yards while getting zero targets in the passing game.

So, what gives with the Rams' No. 1 back? Here's what we know.

Is Kyren Williams playing tonight?

Yes, Williams is active and healthy, it has just been tough sledding for him on Monday night.

The Rams' offense as a whole is struggling, especially along the offensive line, and it doesn't help that fellow running back Blake Corum has gotten ample work.

Corum is now injured and it doesn't look like he's going to return, but the Rams are also trailing by three touchdowns, so the game script will call for a lot of passing moving forward.

We'll see if Williams can turn things around soon.
