From the article

The Cowboys have had success this season with Javonte Williams lined up as an extra blocker just behind the offensive line. They went to this look on 3rd-and-8, but with Spann-Ford in the spot Williams normally is, and Williams in the backfield. Williams didn't even scan for any rushers to pick up before lazily going out in the pass pattern short of the sticks and into coverage, leaving Prescott to be sacked by Sweat.

Williams' failed blocking assignment led to Prescott sack on crucial 3rd-and-8.

Williams was deployed as an extra blocker just behind the offensive line in a 3rd-and-8 situation but failed to execute his assignment; he didn't scan for rushers to pick up before lazily running a short pass pattern into coverage, leaving Prescott vulnerable to a sack by Josh Sweat. This represents a critical execution failure in a high-leverage moment and highlights inconsistent performance in his blocking role.
