Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue said his lack of consistency in practice played a role in his sporadic playing time this season. "I'm trusting my coaches, and just making sure I'm working because, at this level, talent isn't everything," Blue said. "I have to make sure I'm putting in work so that I can continue to have those opportunities."
Huddle Up: Blue handled just 38 carries all year, but when give a chance for extended playing time in the season finale, he delivered 64 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. Assuming Dallas is able to re-sign Javonte Williams, he will be the starter, but Blue made a case to be the primary backup in 2026.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue carried 16 times for 64 yards and his first career touchdown in a Week 18 loss to the New York Giants.
Huddle Up: Blue entered the game with 65 yards on 22 carries for the entire season, so he made a good case for a backup role in Dallas heading into 2026. Blue actually ended the first half with over 70 yards, as he ripped off four runs of 10+ yards - but was bottled up in the second half.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue is expected to start in Week 18 against the New York Giants. He last appeared in Week 8 against the Denver Broncos, and he has posted 65 rushing yards on 22 carries, or 3.0 yards per carry, with no touchdowns through four games.
Huddle Up: Blue is an intriguing option for fantasy managers playing in their championships in Week 18, and he is a sensational DFS option for the finale. However, don't get too carried away. While Javonte Williams is on IR, and Malik Davis has been ruled out, Blue is likely to split the workload with Phil Mafah, who is also an option to see his share of the backfield touches.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue could see some snaps in Week 18, according to owner/general manager Jerry Jones.
Huddle Up: Blue is likely to see chances due to the injuries to Malik Davis and Javonte Williams. This will give the Cowboys a chance to see what they have in the rookie running back heading into 2026.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue rushed eight times for 29 yards in a 44-24 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 8.
Huddle Up: The eight carries were a new career high for the rookie, and over the past two weeks, he has 15 carries for 58 yards. Blue has taken over as the primary backup to Javonte Williams, but he doesn't have much fantasy value outside of being an insurance policy for the aforementioned Williams.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue carried the ball seven times for 29 yards against the Washington Commanders in Week 7. He added a five-yard catch on his lone target.
Huddle Up: Blue is filling the backup role behind Javonte Williams following the season-ending injury to Miles Sanders (knee). The rookie hasn't done much to date, but Blue does carry some handcuff value for Williams owners as the former Broncos back has solidified himself as a legit RB2 for the Cowboys.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue ran three times for zero yards in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers, and he was not targeted in the passing game. He also had two kick returns for 40 yards.
Huddle Up: Blue is a rookie with some upside, but he has yet to do much in his brief time in the backfield. He can be somewhat useful in deeper leagues which reward individual return yardage, and in long-term keeper leagues.
