Williams was limited to 3.4 yards per carry in the Giants' Week 1 win over Dallas. The source notes that many fans and media predicted the Giants would be gashed on the ground by Dallas' offense, but instead the Giants' new-look defense held up against the Cowboys' rushing attack, limiting them to just 69 yards total on the ground.PositiveUsageSep 15, 2026

Williams struggled in the Cowboys' rushing attack, consistently forced to bounce runs away from their intended destination by Giants' run defenders, particularly D.J. Reader. He also scored a receiving touchdown but was involved in a coverage mistake by Arvell Reese.NegativeMatchupSep 14, 2026
Williams was held in check by the Giants' run defense in Week 1, averaging just 3.2 yards per carry through the first three offensive drives and finishing with 12 carries for 41 yards on the ground. The Giants' defensive line was dialed in early against the Cowboys' running game.NegativeMatchupSep 11, 2026
Javonte Williams, who signed a three-year, $24 million deal during the offseason, leads the Cowboys' rushing attack. However, Tyler Smith's injury weakens Dallas' run protection, and the Giants must prove able to stop the run on early downs to force the Cowboys into longer third-down situations. Dallas averaged 4.8 yards per carry in their two matchups against New York last season with 58 total carries; the Giants' defensive upgrades with Tremaine Edmunds and Arvell Reese in the middle of the field should help contain Williams and the run game.PositiveMatchupSep 8, 2026
Williams is coming off by far his best season and faces the Giants' defense that ranked 31st against the run last season and traded away Dexter Lawrence, making this a favorable matchup.PositiveValueAug 21, 2026
ADP 31, source rank 27. In on late Round 3. Expensive for late bloomer but situation is excellent with strong offense and not much competition for high-leverage touches.PositiveValueJul 23, 2026
Williams is ranked in Tier III (Borderline RB1s) and is described as 'my favorite value in this tier, for now' because 'It's a high scoring offense and Brian Schottenheimer showed last year that he isn't afraid to give him a ton of work,' indicating undervalued workload upside.
