Javonte Williams vs TreVeyon Henderson: The Full Breakdown

The Dallas Cowboys running back put up 14.1 PPG in 2025 over 16 games; TreVeyon Henderson of the New England Patriots averaged 11.1 in 17. A 3.0-point margin that could shift on any given week.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Javonte Williams ran for 1201 yards and 11 touchdowns; TreVeyon Henderson posted 911 and 9. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
