It was the running back’s 10th touchdown of the season (eight rushing, two receiving). He has scored all but two of the Rams’ touchdowns this season.

This was the Rams’ first touchdown of the season. Williams ran for 18 yards on three carries and a touchdown catch on the drive. The touchdown tied the game at 7.

Williams has now scored 10 straight games with a touchdown, the longest streak by a Rams player since Todd Gurley went 13 straight games during the 2017 and 2018 seasons.

Kupp scored on the Rams’ next possession. On second-and-goal, Stafford escaped pressure before finding Kupp for a seven-yard touchdown.
