From the article

While there is no denying how good Williams was last season, he did endure a heavy workload while doing so. For the first time in his five-year NFL career, Williams played 250+ SNPs (snaps lined up on the field on run plays) and recorded 250+ rushing attempts.

Negative signalUsage

Williams' heavy 2025 workload (278 SNPs, 252 attempts) correlated with late-season decline.

Williams' 2025 workload of 278 SNPs and 252 rushing attempts was historically heavy for him; he had never previously exceeded 250 SNPs or 250 attempts in his five-year career. His performance declined significantly in the final six games (392 rushing yards, 4.3 Y/A) compared to the first 10 games (809 rushing yards, 5.0 Y/A), suggesting workload fatigue impacted his late-season explosiveness. The source emphasizes the Cowboys need to manage his workload in 2026 to prevent regression.
