i asked Klayton Adams about the competitiveness in the backup RB battle, and the #Cowboys OC has plenty of praise for Jaydon Blue, Malik Davis and Israel Abanikanda. this stuck out, though: 'the guy that probably doesn't get as much credit as he deserves right now is Phil…' With that said, the Cowboys are seeing the value in the year two jump Mafah has shown in camp so far, turning heads with long runs on a near daily basis.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Mafah earning OC praise for year-two jump; preseason could cement backup RB role.

Year-two RB in competition with Jaydon Blue for primary backup spot behind Javonte Williams; profiles similarly to Williams with power running. Cowboys OC Klayton Adams praised Mafah, saying 'the guy that probably doesn't get as much credit as he deserves right now is Phil.' Mafah has turned heads with long runs on a near-daily basis in camp and looked good between the tackles. Strong preseason reps could establish him as having a real role on Sundays this season, especially if he stays hot and becomes a preseason star.
