Re-Signing Javonte Williams an Offseason Priority for Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on Wednesday that re-signing running back Javonte Williams is at the top of the team's list of offseason priorities, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. "We want to bring him back and sign him to a multiple-year deal," Jones said. It's not the first time the Cowboys have said this after the 25-year-old Williams exceeded expectations in his first year in Dallas in 2025. The former Denver Broncos RB had the first 1,000-yard rushing season of his career, gaining 1,210 yards and a career-high 11 touchdowns on the ground on 252 carries over 16 games. Williams added 35 receptions on 51 targets for 137 yards and two more scores to finish as the RB11 in half-PPR scoring. He finished the year on Injured Reserve due to a nagging shoulder injury, but he should be ready in plenty of time for Week 1 of the 2026 season. If he returns to Dallas, Williams should be the clear RB1 option out of the backfield.

Javonte Williams Ruled Out for Sunday

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (shoulder, neck) has officially been ruled out for Sunday's season finale against the New York Giants, per The Athletic's Jon Machota. Williams has been battling a neck/shoulder injury that he originally suffered in Week 15. He was a non-participant every day of practice this week and will miss his first game of the season in Week 18. The 25-year-old has been a workhorse for the Cowboys in his first season with the team, finishing with 252 carries for 1,201 yards and 11 touchdowns while adding 35 catches (51 targets) for 137 yards and two more scores as a receiver. The former Denver Bronco will end the season as the RB13 in PPR points per game (15.2), a major value for fantasy managers who spent a mid-to-late round pick on him in draft season. Malik Davis (calf, eye) has also been ruled out after missing practice all week, setting up rookie Jaydon Blue for the first meaningful action of his career in a favorable matchup against the Giants' 30th-ranked run defense.

Javonte Williams to be Game-Time Decision in Week 18?

It will be a close call for whether Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (neck, shoulder) plays in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival New York Giants, according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer. Williams is battling a neck/shoulder injury that he originally injured back in Week 15, and the Cowboys may play it safe and hold him out this weekend in a meaningless game. Meanwhile, backfield mate Malik Davis (calf, eye) is in the same boat, which could open up a big role for rookie Jaydon Blue, who hasn't played since Week 8. The 25-year-old Williams has been Dallas' unquestioned lead back all year and has been a tremendous value pick in fantasy, but he has become a very shaky Week 18 asset. Even if Williams is active on Sunday, he figures to take on a much smaller role against the G-Men.

Javonte Williams Not on the Week 18 Injury Report

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (shoulder) was initially expected to be limited in Wednesday's practice. However, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports that Williams isn't included on the Week 18 injury report, suggesting he put in a full practice on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Malik Davis (calf, eye) was a non-participant. Williams has been a top-10 fantasy RB in his first year in Dallas as their unquestioned lead back. However, the 25-year-old former Denver Broncos running back could be much riskier for starting lineups this weekend in a meaningless Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival New York Giants. Williams appears to be healthy enough to play on Sunday, but Dallas could give rookie Jaydon Blue some run with an eye towards next season. We should have a clearer picture of how Dallas' backfield will shake out later this week.

Javonte Williams to be Limited on Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (shoulder) is expected to be limited in practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer. Malik Davis (eye) is also expected to be limited for what is a banged-up Cowboys backfield heading into their Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival New York Giants. With nothing to play for but pride, Williams could be rested this weekend. Owner Jerry Jones hinted that rookie RB Jaydon Blue could get some playing time on Sunday for the first time since Week 8. The 25-year-old Williams has been an excellent value play for fantasy managers who drafted him in his first year in Dallas, but he'll be a pretty risky starting lineup option in Week 18. After finding the end zone in last Thursday's Christmas Day win over the Commanders, Williams didn't return due to a shoulder injury that he's been battling in recent weeks.

Javonte Williams Leaves with Shoulder Injury

According to Tommy Yarrish of the team, Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (shoulder) is questionable to return to Thursday's road matchup with their division-rival Washington Commanders. Williams exited Christmas Day's contest in the first half after picking up a shoulder injury. Before leaving, he'd racked up 54 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries, failing to bring in either of his targets. With the University of North Carolina product on the sideline, fantasy managers can expect backfield mates Malik Davis and Hunter Leupke to pick up extra snaps in his stead. As it stands, Davis figures to get most of the work, considering he's primarily played behind Williams over the previous few weeks.

Javonte Williams Primed for Big Bounce-Back Game on Christmas

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (neck) posted his worst fantasy performance of the season last week against the Los Angeles Chargers, handling a season low nine carries for 34 yards while adding two catches (three targets) for nine yards. It marked his fewest total yards in a game since Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers. Williams played through a neck injury last Sunday but doesn't carry an injury designation heading into the Christmas game versus the Washington Commanders. The former Denver Bronco has a dream spot on Christmas Day against the Commanders to rebound and finish his strong first season in Dallas on a high note. The 25-year-old compiled 19 carries for 116 yards and a touchdown to go with one reception (four targets) for two yards in their Week 7 matchup. Washington is one of only four teams to allow over five yards per carry while also allowing the third-highest rate of runs that result in 10 yards or more over the last five games. Williams ranks as a borderline RB1 in Week 17.

Javonte Williams Cleared to Play in Week 17

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (neck) was upgraded to a full practice on Wednesday and has been removed from the team's final Week 17 injury report, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Williams will be active for the Christmas Day divisional matchup on Thursday against the Washington Commanders. The 25-year-old suffered a neck injury in Week 15 but managed to play through it in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, handling 11 touches for 43 total yards while playing 57% of the offensive snaps. Malik Davis has seen a larger role the last two games with Williams banged up, but he should continue to operate as the RB2 in Week 17 on Christmas Day. Williams should be viewed as on the RB1/2 borderline for fantasy managers with league championship trophies on the line this week.

Javonte Williams a High-Ceiling Play Despite Neck Issue

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (neck) was able to log a full practice session on Friday, and he looks to be a locked-in RB1 option for Sunday's Week 16 matchup with the Chargers. Los Angeles' defense has been strong against the pass all season, forcing most opponents into a run-heavy game plan, but the Cowboys also boast one of the few offenses in the league capable of turning any game into a shootout. Sunday's 50.5 point over/under is the second-highest of the week, implying that both teams will see plenty of scoring opportunities, and with the Cowboys a slight favorite at home, Williams should be in line for his normal bellcow workload. His 230 carries on the season were the seventh most in the league coming into Week 16, and he ranks in the top six in both rushing yards and touchdowns. Williams is RotoBaller's RB12 against the Chargers' league-average run defense.

Cowboys Want to Re-Sign Javonte Williams

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on Friday that he would like to re-sign running back Javonte Williams, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. "He's had an outstanding season," Jones said on 105.3 The Fan. "I love the way he brings the wood, so to speak, when he runs. Looking forward to him hopefully being a Cowboy for a time to come." Williams is having his best NFL season in his first year in Dallas, as he enters Week 16 with career-highs in carries (230), rushing yards (1,113), and touchdowns (10) in 14 starts for the Cowboys. The 25-year-old former Denver Broncos RB has added 33 catches on 46 targets for 128 yards and another two TDs through the air. Williams suffered a neck injury in Week 15 in the first quarter, but he returned in the second half and should be good for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers. He'll be a low-end RB1 for fantasy managers this weekend.
