STACKED’s take
Williams' 6 rushing TDs in 5 games warrant increased workload, especially in red zone.
Buy recommendation: Williams has been productive enough to deserve more opportunities, especially in the red zone. Through five games, he has carried the ball 74 times for 276 yards and 6 rushing touchdowns (3.7 yards per carry average) and contributed 17 receptions for 94 yards and 1 receiving TD. While the rushing average is not eye-popping, his touchdown production is difficult to overlook—he has consistently been a useful option when Dallas needs to finish a drive, including scoring the opening TD against Tampa Bay on a one-yard run and breaking off a 21-yard gain earlier in that drive. The source argues that giving Williams more carries would help the Cowboys stay ahead of the chains, keep the defense honest, and create better play-action opportunities for Prescott. His six rushing touchdowns demonstrate he can be trusted in scoring situations; Dallas needs to give him a bigger role to see whether that production can translate into more consistent success between the 20s.
