Javonte Williams Week 6 Outlook - Cowboys at Panthers

By Ellis Johnson (FantasyPros), Tue, Oct 7th 2025, 10:38pm EDT

Williams has been great this season. Although he hasn't been the most efficient back, nor the most explosive, his strangle-hold on the workload is fantasy gold. Not only is he the RB3 on the season, but he is also third in rushing yards and second in touchdowns. This week, Dallas has another great matchup against the Panthers, who just had an impressive comeback win against the Dolphins last week. The Panthers' defense has been better than it has in years past, but it is still vulnerable to big plays. Last week, they held De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon to 14 rushing yards on 13 attempts. If this team can continue to slow down the run, Dak Prescott should have no issue lighting up their secondary. As a result, Williams may be phased out this week, but he remains one of the best backs in fantasy.
