"Overall, Williams had a solid season. He cracked 100 yards in two games, with a high of 135 against the Jets. Despite not playing in the season finale against the Giants, Williams finished with career highs in rushing yards (1,201) and rushing touchdowns (11). Williams added 137 yards on 35 catches and two receiving touchdowns. Resigning Williams must be Dallas' highest priority. His presence in the backfield opened up defenses and allowed Dak Prescott to have his best year of his 10-year career."
"The Dallas Cowboys came into the 2025 season looking to begin a season with a new starting running back for the third straight year. The question they faced was who would be the next player in the line of succession? And would he be able to match the numbers put up by Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard, and Rico Dowdle? Dallas went to the free agent market and signed two running backs, Denver's Javonte Williams, and former Eagles' back Miles Sanders."
The Cowboys entered 2025 seeking a new starting running back for the third consecutive season. The team signed free agents Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders, drafted Jaydon Blue (5th round) and Phil Mafah (7th), and brought back Malik Davis midseason. Javonte Williams totaled career highs with 1,201 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns, plus 137 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns, and had two 100-yard rushing games. Williams' presence opened up defenses and elevated Dak Prescott's performance. Resigning Williams is a top priority, with the team likely to re-sign him or use the franchise tag depending on other negotiations.
