(Photo by Michael Owens/Getty Images) | Getty Images Second-year Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum had a breakthrough season in 2025 following a lackluster rookie campaign. After being given more opportunities on offense in Year 2, can Corum capitalize on it ahead of this season? His lack of opportunities in his first year in the league is well-documented.

Some fans were clamoring for him to get more playing time when Kyren Williams was struggling with fumbling issues. However, it just wasn’t meant to be for the Michigan product that year. Corum again played all 17 games last season, but amassed nearly 750 yards on the ground on 145 touches and six rushing scores. I...
