"Cowboys RB Javonte Williams said he had doubts about his NFL future after his significant knee injury in Denver in 2022. 'There was a time I thought it was gonna be over with. But I just kept going. The coaches got a lot of trust in me. I like my teammates.'"
"Davis played in 10 games last year, had 52 attempts, and rushed for 250 yards and scored twice. That is the current guy who is going to be getting the snaps when Williams is not in the game."
"Seth McGowan impressed at the NFL Combine by jumping the biggest vertical (42.5 inches) and broad jump (10-foot-11) among participating ball carriers. He's a decisive runner who rushed for 12 touchdowns in 2025."
"The Cowboys' current running back room is dependent on Javonte Williams staying healthy. Taking a chance on a guy who ran for nearly 800 yards and scored 12 times last year isn't a bad thing that late in the draft."
The Dallas Cowboys' running back roster includes Javonte Williams, Malik Davis, Jaydon Blue, and Phil Mafah. Williams' signing was crucial to avoid a third consecutive year without a stable lead back. Currently, Davis is expected to take the lead if Williams is unavailable. Davis had 250 rushing yards last season. The team may consider drafting a running back like Seth McGowan, who showcased impressive athleticism at the NFL Combine. The overall success of the running back position hinges on Williams' health and performance.
