Javonte Williams
vs Jeremiyah Love

“Javonte Williams is averaging 2.6 yards per carry through two weeks, and half of his carries have gone for two or fewer yards. He ranks second-lowest in rushing first downs and has looked slower this season. The Cowboys’ offensive line ranks last in yards before contact.”

“The Cowboys offensive line has struggled without Tyler Smith , and it has shown with Williams averaging 3.4 and 2.5 rushing yards per attempt so far. It will get better for Williams, but it may not be this week. Baltimore has the makings to make this a track meet early against a dreadful Cowboys defense, leaving Dallas no option but to toss the ball around the park in Rio.”

“While I believe the aforementioned Judkins and Javonte Williams are good backs, I am not sold that they are great. However, both RBs get nearly all of the work for their respective backfields. I’m no chemist, but I know that if you mix bad defenses with high-powered offenses, you often get fireworks.”

“Last year, Javonte Williams was a massive surprise in fantasy football to everyone, including me.”

“Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) A breakout that surprised even his believers, as Williams finished RB11 in points per game after most expectations topped out at a volume-driven RB2.”

“” – Aaron St Denis ( Fantasy Sports Advice Network ) Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) “If I end up with a late pick, Javonte Williams is the running back I’m targeting when I get to Round 3. Last year, he was awesome in his first year with Dallas, racking up 1,338 total yards and scoring 13 touchdowns.”

“Javonte Williams is coming off a season with more than 1,200 rushing yards and is in a high-powered offense.”

“Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) was actually the RB1 in fantasy points per game last year, yet he’s being drafted like a mid-tier RB2 this year.”

“Round 5: DeVonta Smith (WR – PHI) Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was staring me in the face, but with a FLEX spot still available in a PPR league, I couldn’t pass up DeVonta Smith .”

“Scoring less than 10 minutes into his professional debut, it seemed as if Love would instantly be living up to the pre-season hype and hefty draft capital that had been placed on him by the fantasy community…but almost as soon as Arizona’s new #4 found the end zone… Tyler Allgeier decided to play the villain and out-touched Love on his debut, 17 carries to 11. Ok, maybe we are just letting the newbie find his feet; we don’t want to throw him into the deep end too early…right? Well, kinda.”

“Unfortunately, a bell-cow role for Love might not be on the horizon, either. Mike LaFleur’s explanation for keeping Allgeier on the field for the game’s final drive voiced trust in Allgeier’s pass protection. However, Love also mentioned the team having a plan to manage his workload.”

“The Ballers are convinced of Jeremiyah Love ’s breakout for this season, but Love’s dynasty stock is back on track after taking a slight dip in the first two weeks of the season.”

“Be Patient with Rookie RBs Jeremiyah Love played 55 snaps to Allgeier’s 31, but the touches were much more lopsided: 26 to six. Allgeier still handled passing-down work, particularly pass protection, but received just two carries. Love getting five carries on the opening drive also tells us ARI wanted him involved immediately.”

“Two games into his NFL career, Jeremiyah Love’s usage has been absolutely nothing to write home about. He has been out-carried by Tyler Allgeier 22 to 20. That’s not too surprising, but what is borderline shocking is that the boring veteran has run more routes than the dynamic rookie, 32 to 23.”

“Love has yet to see more than 13 touches or top 13 PPR points in a game.”

“We were unsure if Love was going to start in Game 1, and if he did, what would his role look like alongside veteran RB Tyler Allgeier ? After their win against the Los Angeles Chargers , it looks like the team will take a conservative approach with Love. He had 11 carries for 41 yards, caught two targets for nine yards, and hauled in his first NFL TD.”

“As the season goes along, Love will undoubtedly take on more of the workload.”

“Running Backs Rankings & Tiers 2026 Fantasy Football Rankings powered by FantasyPros ECR – Expert Consensus Rankings Fantasy Football Start/Sit Lineup Advice: Running Backs Cardinals rookie Jeremiyah Love is expected to play despite a high-ankle sprain sustained in the Cardinals’ preseason opener. Love was electric in that game before the injury. He’s going to be a gem.”

“Unfortunately, Jeremiyah Love was a victim of a rug pull, seeing his touches drop dramatically from Week 3, and that rotation with Tyler Allgeier might stick around longer than we’d hoped.
