Javonte Williams Comfortably Paces Cowboys' Backfield in Snaps
Javonte Williams was far and away his team's No. 1 option out of the backfield during their Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It was unclear exactly how Dallas' running back touch distribution would shake out leading up to the campaign, but Williams was the unquestioned RB1 in the season opener. The former North Carolina Tar Heel out-carried teammate Miles Sanders 15-4, and out-snapped him by a hefty 47-11 margin. Sanders did break off a chunk gain, but Williams was able to punch two in across the goal line and didn't cough up a fumble like his counterpart. With rookie Jaydon Blue a healthy inactive, Williams is poised to lead this backfield for the foreseeable future. He's a decent low-end RB2/flex option.
