Dallas Cowboys RB Javonte Williams (neck, shoulder) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list on Saturday, Jan. 3. He finished the season with a career highs of 1,201 rushing yards, 4.8 rushing yards per carry and 11 touchdowns across 16 games.
Huddle Up: Williams had his first 1,000-yard game for The Star, but he was used differently than in the past. He was more of a change-of-pace back in Denver, while catching the ball more out of the backfield. Heading into 2026, should personnel remain generally the same, he would be an attractive RB2 or flex fantasy play. Jaydon Blue will get a look in Week 18, as Malik Davis is also sidelined for the regular-season finale.

Dallas Cowboys RB Javonte Williams (neck, shoulder) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Jaydon Blue is in line for a big role in the offense this week with both Williams and Malik Davis ruled out. He has rushed for only 65 yards on 22 carries in his limited playing time this season but can be at least a flex option in most leagues.
