His season was also a tale of two halves as he faded some down the back half of the year. In Weeks 1-8, he averaged 18.5 touches, 90.7 total yards, and scored nine total touchdowns as the RB8 in fantasy points per game. In Weeks 9-17, he averaged 17.4 touches, 76.5 total yards, and scored only four total touchdowns as the RB25 in fantasy points per game.

STACKED’s take

NeutralUsage

Williams faded in second half (RB8 to RB25 pace) due to TD variance, not efficiency.

Javonte Williams experienced a notable split in 2025 production: Weeks 1-8 he averaged 18.5 touches, 90.7 total yards, and scored nine touchdowns (RB8 pace); Weeks 9-17 he averaged 17.4 touches, 76.5 total yards, and scored only four touchdowns (RB25 pace). The source attributes much of the stock drop to variance in touchdown production rather than efficiency decline, noting his yards after contact per attempt fell from 3.52 to 2.33 but his explosive run rate actually improved from 4.8% to 5.5% and missed tackle rate improved from 11% to 13%.
