Javonte Williams!
The former UNC football star wasted no time making an impact in his Dallas Cowboys debut, finding a hole up the middle for a two-yard score. His touchdown comes on Dallas' first possession of the 2025 season.

It's fitting that a Tar Heel scored the first touchdown of the new season. Williams scored plenty of touchdowns during his time in Chapel Hill and made a knack for scoring points during his stint with the Denver Broncos, but now hopes to add even more scores to his resume throughout the 2025 season and beyond.
Without a doubt, the 2025 season is off to a terrific start for one of the best running backs to ever wear the Carolina Blue uniform in college.
