Javonte Williams has re-signed with the Dallas Cowboys, according to reports surfacing on February 28, 2026. The re-signing, however, comes with a cautionary note for Fantasy Football managers regarding his potential performance in the latter half of the 2025 season.
The Cowboys have also been heavily involved in contract negotiations with kicker Brandon Aubrey. Reports indicate Aubrey is seeking a contract worth nearly $10 million, which would represent the largest offer ever made to a kicker in NFL history. While described as “absurd but reasonable” by some analysts, the substantial asking price underscores Aubrey’s value to the team and the increasing financial stakes within the league for specialist positions.
Dallas is preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft with a significant advantage: two first-round picks. This strategic position allows the Cowboys to potentially address multiple needs and further bolster their roster, particularly as they navigate ongoing contract discussions with key players like Aubrey and assess the performance trajectory of recently re-signed players like Williams.
The Cowboys’ offer to Aubrey, while substantial, is still under negotiation. The team’s willingness to engage in discussions at this level highlights the importance they place on a reliable kicking game, a factor that has turn into increasingly critical in the modern NFL. The outcome of these negotiations will likely set a novel benchmark for kicker contracts across the league.
