    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Career-high rushing yardage in win

    Javonte Williams rushed 25 times for 155 yards and a touchdown in the Dallas Cowboys' 38-21 win over the Eagles on Monday night.Williams broke out for a new single-game career high in rushing yards during the impressive victory, sealing the win with a two-yard scoring run just ahead of the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter. The remarkable performance also marked Williams' first 100-yard tally of the season, and he's been highly rewarding for fantasy managers by scoring a touchdown in five straight games. Williams should have a prime opportunity to continue building on his strong first half of the season in Week 8, as he'll face a vulnerable Cardinals run defense at home on Sunday.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Scores again in Week 6 defeat

    Javonte Williams rushed 11 times for 41 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for nine yards in Sunday's 23-13 loss to the Packers.Williams got the Dallas Cowboys on the board with a one-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. That was his seventh rushing score and eighth total touchdown through six games this season. Dallas trailed by double digits the entire second half, which explains Williams' season-low carry total. His frequent trips to the end zone have made up for a lack of efficiency, as Williams is averaging just 3.7 yards per carry after notching a career-best 4.8 YPC in 2025. Williams mustered 3.6 YPC in 2023 and 3.7 YPC in 2024 with the Broncos, so his first year in Dallas is starting to look like an outlier in that regard, though he should remain an effective fantasy option as long as he's locked into a three-down role with the Cowboys. He's likely to get more rushing opportunities in Week 7, as the Cowboys are unlikely to fall into a deep hole against an injury-riddled Eagles team on a four-game losing streak.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Another TD in Week 5 loss

    Javonte Williams rushed 12 times for 45 yards and a touchdown and brought in two of three targets for 17 yards in the Dallas Cowboys' 24-16 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night.Williams' rushing opportunities were somewhat capped by a surprising second-half game script that included a 17-0 third-quarter advantage for Tampa Bay. However, the veteran running back had gotten Dallas started off on the right foot in the first quarter, when he capped off a nine-play opening drive with a one-yard touchdown run. Williams did a respectable job throughout the night grinding out yards against a tough Buccaneers run defense, but he's now averaged less than 3.8 yards per carry in four of the first five games, including two straight. Nevertheless, Williams does have six rushing touchdowns in the same span, and he should have a good chance at a heftier workload on the ground in a Week 6 road matchup against the Packers on Sunday, Oct. 18.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Makes three trips to end zone in Week 4 win

    Javonte Williams carried the ball 19 times for 62 yards and three touchdowns while catching all five of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Texans.A 16-6 lead for Houston at the half transformed into a barn burner that saw Williams hit paydirt on three straight possessions to begin the second half, with his TD runs coming from eight, one and two yards out. The 26-year-old running back is proving his 2025 breakout was no fluke, and through four games to begin the current campaign he's scored six touchdowns (five on the ground, one through the air) while putting together 308 scrimmage yards. Williams will look to keep rolling in a Week 5 home tilt against the Buccaneers.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Big day in Brazil

    Javonte Williams carried the ball 19 times for 98 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Ravens. He also caught two of three targets for five yards.The veteran back gave the Dallas Cowboys a 10-0 lead in the first quarter with a two-yard TD plunge, his third trip to the end zone in three games this season, and Williams topped 100 scrimmage yards for the first time since Week 12 of 2025. Even with Sunday's strong effort, Williams has managed just 3,9 yards per carry to begin the year, a major downturn from his 4.8 mark in 2025. He'll look to keep building momentum in a Week 4 road trip to Houston.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Compiles 50 total yards in win

    Javonte Williams rushed 12 times for 30 yards and brought in three of four targets for 20 yards in the Dallas Cowboys' 37-20 win over the Commanders on Sunday.The Commanders' front more than held its own against the Cowboys' offensive line, leading Williams to scratch and claw for yardage while Dak Prescott carved up Washington's defense through the air. Williams still played a clear lead role despite the modest amount of rush attempts, and he was once again an important complementary option in the passing game. Williams has another tough assignment on tap in Week 3, as the Cowboys welcome in the Ravens next Sunday.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Scores twice in Week 1 loss

    Javonte Williams rushed 12 times for 41 yards and a touchdown while catching all five of his targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-20 loss to the Giants.Williams scored a one-yard rushing touchdown in the third quarter and added a 17-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter. He was called for a 15-yard taunting penalty on his touchdown catch, and Brandon Aubrey missed the ensuing PAT to keep Dallas' deficit at eight points with 5:21 remaining, though that miss proved moot after the Giants proceeded to eat up the remainder of the game clock on the ensuing possession. No Dallas Cowboys teammate had more than two carries in Sunday's loss, so Williams is locked in as the primary option in Dallas' backfield heading into a Week 2 home game against the Commanders.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Locked atop depth chart after cuts

    Javonte Williams appears to be locked in atop the backfield depth chart after the Dallas Cowboys waived several running backs over the weekend, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.Dallas cut all three of Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah and Israel Abanikanda as the roster was trimmed to 53 players over the weekend. Additionally, Williams didn't see any preseason action, suggesting the Cowboys are more than comfortable with his standing as the team's clear RB1. With Blue, Mafah and Abanikanda off the roster, the Cowboys are set to head into the regular season with Malik Davis and waiver pickup Emari Demercado as Williams' backups. Williams isn't a sexy pick in the third round of fantasy drafts, but he should be able to return that price with ease if he's seeing 18-22 opportunities per game like he did last season.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Expects offense to take step up

    Javonte Williams feels like the Dallas Cowboys' offense has hit the ground running ahead of the regular season, Tommy Yarrish of the team's official website reports.Williams is coming off a career year in 2025, notching 1,201 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns on 252 carries -- all career highs -- over 16 regular-season contests in his first season with Dallas. As a result of that production, the running back was rewarded with a fresh three-year, $24 million contract in February. The Cowboys ranked second in the NFL in total offense last season, averaging 391.9 yards per game, and Williams feels like the offense is picking up where it left off. "I feel like we hit the ground running. We didn't really start from the ground up, we just kind of built on what we could've done better last year. I feel like we're executing and communicating well," said Williams. If Dallas does find a way to be even better on offense in 2026, Williams would likely be a major part of it as the team's undisputed No. 1 option in the backfield.

    Cowboys' Javonte Williams: Tight grip on RB1 role in Dallas

    Javonte Williams remains the Dallas Cowboys' lead back entering the 2026 season, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.Williams is set to lead a backfield that also includes Malik Davis, Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah, Israel Abanikanda and Dominic Richardson heading into training camp. Blue, a 2025 fifth-round pick, could be ready for a larger role in his second season, especially in passing situations, but Williams remains the clear No. 1 option for the Cowboys at running back after rushing for a career-high 1,201 yards across 16 games in 2025, Williams' age-25 campaign.
