Who Should I Start? Javonte Williams or Robbie Ouzts

According to Tommy Yarrish of the team, Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (shoulder) is questionable to return to Thursday's road matchup with their division-rival Washington Commanders. Williams exited Christmas Day's contest in the first half after picking up a shoulder injury. Before leaving, he'd racked up 54 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries, failing to bring in either of his targets. With the University of North Carolina product on the sideline, fantasy managers can expect backfield mates Malik Davis and Hunter Leupke to pick up extra snaps in his stead. As it stands, Davis figures to get most of the work, considering he's primarily played behind Williams over the previous few weeks.

The Seattle Seahawks are converting rookie fifth-round tight end Robbie Ouzts to a 274-pound fullback as part of their vision for a more physical running game under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson. Ouzts will be competing with Brady Russell, who is also making the transition from tight end to fullback this offseason. He worked mostly as a blocker during his four-year college career at Alabama, so it should be a pretty natural transition for Ouzts in Seattle. Ouzts obviously won't be on the fantasy radar at all as a blocker if he's on the field regularly, but this news is good news for the Seahawks' ground attack and starting running back Kenneth Walker III and backup Zach Charbonnet. In 17 games last year, Seattle averaged just 95.7 rushing yards per game, which ranked as the fifth-fewest in the NFL.
