Cowboys place RB Javonte Williams on IR

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was placed on injured reserve Saturday, ending his career-best season.

Signed to a one-year, $3 million contract in March, Williams recorded personal bests in carries (252), rushing yards (1,201) and rushing touchdowns (11) in 16 games (all starts) this season.

Williams did not participate in practice this week for the Cowboys (7-8-1) after sustaining shoulder and neck injuries during the team's 30-23 win over the Washington Commanders on Christmas Day.
