Javonte Williams Scores Touchdown, Otherwise Quiet In Loss

Sunday, September 13, 8:34 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams handled 12 of the 15 carries the Dallas Cowboys called for running backs in his team's Week 1 loss. He averaged a lowly 3.4 yards per carry, though he did find the end zone once on the ground. He added five catches on five targets for 31 yards and another touchdown, leading to a very productive day in fantasy football. It wasn't enough to lift the Cowboys over their opponent, bitter divisional rival New York Giants, though. Williams remains the workhorse back for his team, and got more receiving work than usual, but didn't find much room to run against what was a poor Giants run defense last season. Another easy defensive matchup on paper is coming in Week 2, when Dallas returns home to play another divisional rival, the Washington Commanders. Look for Williams to be more efficient and log more carries in that game.

Quinshon Judkins Inefficient as Lead Back in Week 1

Sunday, September 13, 2:20 PM

Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins rushed for 33 yards on 12 carries during Sunday's Week 1 loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He also caught two passes for an additional 17 receiving yards. This was Jackson's first regular-season action since Week 16 of his rookie season last year. The 22-year-old is quite talented, but he's likely being held back by the suboptimal state of the Browns' offense, led by quarterback Deshaun Watson. As long as this offense continues to struggle sustaining drives and staying on the field, Judkins will remain a mid-to-low RB2 option in fantasy football. His path to production gets only slightly easier next week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who just surrendered 78 scrimmage yards and a touchdown to Chase Brown.
