Henderson's window with the Rams is just about closed. He's a FA after this season. He is also a guy who has failed to do his job, which is back up the RB position and carry the ball when the starter goes down, for multiple years in a row now. He gets hurt way too often and wilts when he's asked to run into the teeth of a good defense. And he goes down if someone touches his shoelace.

The only area Henderson is a plus back is in the pass game. That's not enough to hold down a RB2 spot on a championship roster.

Kyren's a guy who can carry the ball for you vs a good defense. He has good power and contact balance. But he's also a solid pass catcher so you don't lose too much there if anything.

I figure it will take maybe half of camp for Kyren to take that job. But worst case for him sometime during his rookie season he'll seize the job.

  Could Kyren Williams ascend to RB2 at some point as a rookie?
