Former Broncos Running Back Javonte Williams Aims to Top Denver in His Return

Javonte Williams ranks second in NFL rushing yards through seven weeks after recovering from a severe 2022 knee injury, aided by new recovery methods introduced by a teammate.

  • On Sunday, Javonte Williams, Dallas Cowboys running back, returns to Denver in Week 8 with a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff after reviving his career in Dallas.
  • The Cowboys signed Williams on a one-year, $3 million deal after Denver let him enter free agency, and he said the split felt `I feel like it was kind of just mutual` as Sean Payton stayed in contact.
  • Williams credits acupuncture and recovery routine for his 5.3 yards per carry, saying `I got this needle dude. He can come by and get you right`, with 592 yards and six touchdowns.
  • Dallas will lean on Williams early to complement a potent passing attack, as Broncos defenders led by Alex Singleton swarm his lower body to limit the Cowboys offense.
  • Denver Broncos' 5-2 start and eight-game home winning streak raise stakes for Williams' return, while Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said `I hope there's even more room for improvement`.
