Kyren Williams is off to a hot start with his performances throughout the Los Angeles Rams' 2026 NFL season. His efforts haven't gone unnoticed as one of the team's coaches delivered immense praise.

Williams has been playing in the NFL since 2022, going through his fifth season with the Rams. He embraced the starting job in 2023 and never looked back, enjoying great campaigns in the potent attack featuring Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua.

Williams recently flourished in both rushing and receiving throughout Los Angeles' clash with the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 4. He led the run game with 16 carries for 80 yards and two touchdowns while catching 10 passes for 67 yards.

This resulted in offensive coordinator Nathan Scheelhaase showing his high remarks for the star rusher. He talked to reporters on Friday, explaining how Williams continues to be remarkably effective in the offense.

“[Kyren's] a consistent player, and that's not taking anything away from all of our guys and how they approach the game. But he's the most consistent player that we had in the building this offseason, from OTAs to training camp. That guy came to work every single day, rep after rep, over and over. I don't think he missed a rep a day. I don't think he had a day where he was like, ‘we're gonna give Kyron a little bit of a break here.' He has come to work, and I think you're seeing positive results from what was going on this entire offseason,” Scheelhaase said.

"He just loves being a part of this team, being able to make an impact and has done an awesome way for us."
