Williams' 1,201 yards and $24M deal secure lead-back role vs. weak Packers run.

Williams ran for 1,201 yards in 2025 and re-signed for 3 years, $24M, securing his role as Dallas' lead back. The Packers allow 168.4 rushing yards per game (32nd) and -0.02 EPA per rush (~23rd), while Dallas has allowed a league-high 842 rushing yards through five games. Green Bay's run game ranks 32nd (60 yards per game), so if the Packers can establish the run, Williams faces a vulnerable run defense in a projected 52.5-point shootout.
