"Javonte Williams was so much more than the Cowboys could have expected when they signed him to a one-year, $3.5M contract. Williams seized his opportunity in Dallas and had a career year, setting career-highs in touchdowns and yards."
"More than half of his 1,201 rushing yards came after contact, and he broke 25 tackles last season, the second-most of his career. This signifies that Williams has the elusiveness he showed as a rookie along with his power."
"The Cowboys' decision to give Williams a three-year, $24M extension was money well spent, as it fell well below the three-year, $43M contract given to Kenneth Walker III by the Kansas City Chiefs."
"At 25 years of age, Williams has a lot of tread on the tire to offer the Cowboys borderline Pro Bowl caliber production for the next few seasons."
Entering the 2025 season, the Cowboys' running back situation was uncertain, but the addition of Javonte Williams proved beneficial. Williams exceeded expectations with a career year, achieving over 1,200 rushing yards and setting career-highs in touchdowns. His ability to gain yards after contact and excel in pass protection contributed significantly to the team's success. The Cowboys rewarded him with a three-year extension, indicating confidence in his potential. Additionally, Jaydon Blue is positioned as a complementary back, enhancing the overall running game.
