Javonte WilliamsRBDAL
Williams has significant room for improvement in rushing volume. The Cowboys finished 16th in rushing attempts in 2025 despite ranking 9th in yards per attempt and 9th in yards per attempt efficiency. With new head coach Brian Schottenheimer historically favoring a run-first approach and the team's improved defense expected to reduce the need for pass-heavy game scripts, more rushing attempts and crucial red-zone touches are likely in Year Two, providing upside beyond his RB11 finish.
