"The Dallas Cowboys have ensured their backfield remains locked and loaded by re-signing breakout running back Javonte Williams to a new three-year, $24 million contract. The agreement, which includes $16 million in guaranteed money, comes after weeks of front-office speculation regarding the impending free agent. By locking up Williams before the start of the new league year, the Cowboys avoid having to get caught up in a bidding war for the 25-year-old running back had he entered the open market."
"After joining the Cowboys on a cheap prove-it deal, he shattered expectations by recording career-highs across the board, finishing with 1,201 rushing yards, 11 rushing touchdowns, and an efficient 4.8 yards per carry. His physical style provided the perfect thunder to the Cowboys' high-flying passing attack, as he ranked among the league's best with 3.58 yards after contact per carry and helped Dallas finish with the NFL's ninth-best rushing offense."
The Cowboys signed Javonte Williams to a three-year, $24 million contract that includes $16 million guaranteed, avoiding a potential open-market bidding war by re-signing him before the new league year. Williams previously earned $4 million with incentives and secured an $8 million annual salary after a breakout 2025 season. Williams rushed for 1,201 yards, scored 11 rushing touchdowns, averaged 4.8 yards per carry and produced 3.58 yards after contact per carry. The Cowboys value his physical running style as complementary to the passing game, and the front office chose retention over pursuing a lower-cost replacement.
