Can Javonte Williams Replicate 2025 Success in 2026?

Friday, May 1, 12:52 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was one of the surprise success stories of the 2025 season, recording 1,338 yards from scrimmage and 13 touchdowns on 287 touches across 16 games. The Cowboys rewarded Williams this past offseason with a new three-year, $24 million contract. For the second straight year, Williams figures to play a workhorse role in the Dallas backfield. Behind Williams, the unproven trio of Malik Davis, Jaydon Blue, and Phil Mafah currently projects as the next men up on the team's running back depth chart. While Williams' 2025 production seemingly came out of nowhere, it may simply have been a product of him finally getting back to full health after the devastating knee injury that he suffered in 2022. Williams' value in dynasty formats is on the rise as he enters his age-26 season.

Run-Heavy Apparoach Set to Benefit TreVeyon Henderson?

Friday, May 1, 8:05 AM

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson should benefit from the team's anticipated run-heavy approach in 2026. As it stands, the Patriots' receiving corps has taken a step backward this offseason, with Stefon Diggs essentially being replaced by Romeo Doubs. Without a flashy new weapon for Drake Maye to throw to, all signs point to the Patriots running the ball a lot in 2026. That falls in line with what we saw last year, when Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson combined for 310 carries. Both Henderson and Stevenson were top-25 backs in fantasy football, and we could see a similar result in 2026. Even though Henderson has second-round draft capital, the Patriots appear committed to getting Stevenson heavily involved. That's what a run-heavy approach bodes well for Henderson -- there will be more carries to go around, and Henderson will have an opportunity to put up RB2 numbers in fantasy football even if Stevenson is getting double-digit touches per game.
