If it weren't for Daniel Jones' renaissance with the Indianapolis Colts, Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams might be getting more love for the NFL's Comeback Player of the Year award.
Sure, Williams played in all 17 games for the Denver Broncos last season, but he managed just 513 yards on the ground in those contests. In just seven games with the Cowboys the 25-year-old has already racked up 592 yards and six touchdowns on the ground.
The former second-round pick is getting set to face off against the team that drafted him, but Williams doesn't need any extra motivation.
"It was just a good atmosphere," Williams said of Denver. "I loved the team, I loved the staff, the coaches. I had a good time. It probably didn't go the way I wanted it to go, but I mean, I'm here now."
