Who Should I Start? Mike Davis or Javonte Williams

Monday, February 19, 3:49 PM

Running back Mike Davis officially announced his retirement from professional football on Monday on his X account. "As I turn 31 today, I sit back and look on my NFL career and how thankful I am to be apart of a brotherhood. This game has allowed me to make a lot of friends and memories. I'm grateful for every organization in NFL. With that being said I'm retiring!" Davis wrote. The 31-year-old was initially a fourth-round pick in 2015 by the San Francisco 49ers out of South Carolina. He spent the first two seasons of his career in San Fran before playing for the Seattle Seahawks, Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers, Atlanta Falcons and Baltimore Ravens. Davis will wrap up his eight-year career with a total of 558 carries for 2,052 yards (3.7 yards per tote) and 14 touchdowns, adding 171 catches for 1,066 yards and four TDs in the air over 87 games (30 starts).

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams had his second 100-yard rushing performance of the season in the Week 7 victory over the visiting Washington Commanders on Sunday. In the 44-22 win, Williams was dominant on the ground, going for 116 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries (6.1 yards per carry). It was the 25-year-old's second game in 2025 with over 100 rushing yards, and it was a nice bounce-back effort after he had a season-low 29 ground yards on 13 carries in last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers. He added just one catch on four targets for a gain of two yards. Williams showed his bruising style of play and was able to pick up chunk gains out of the backfield against a weak Commanders defense on Sunday. He is averaging over 5.0 yards per tote in his first year in Dallas and is well on his way to a breakout in his fifth NFL season in Dallas' high-scoring offense. Williams has become a must-start RB2 in fantasy, but it could be tough sledding against his old team, the Denver Broncos, in a Week 8 showdown.
