Cowboys’ Williams brings the boom on Christmas against Commanders

Kids who want to learn how to use the truck stick in the video game “Madden NFL” should watch what Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams did against the Washington Commanders on Christmas.

On Dallas’ first drive against Washington, Williams lowered his shoulder and trucked cornerback Mike Sainristil, picking up nine yards on a 1st-and-10. The play extended the drive, which ended with quarterback Dak Prescott tossing a six-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jake Ferguson. 

Now, kids who received “Madden NFL” for Christmas, take notes and hop on an Xbox or PlayStation and try that move out. 

That’s not the only way Williams has brought the boom for the Cowboys in 2025. The fifth-year RB has revived his career in Dallas, powering the team’s rushing attack. That’s giving the organization something to consider this offseason.
