Cowboys RB Sent for Doping Test After Torching Chiefs in Week 13

Dallas, TX – In a shocking postgame twist, Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was immediately pulled for a random NFL doping test just minutes after his team’s thrilling 31-28 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13.

And the reason? According to fans and teammates — he played too well.

Breakout Game Turns Into Suspicion?

Javonte Williams: A Must-Start Fantasy RB in Dallas

Javonte Williams, the former Denver Broncos back with a torn ACL history and minimal preseason expectations, erupted against the Chiefs’ vaunted defense:

  • 17 carries for 122 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns

  • A staggering 7.1 yards per carry

  • A 43-yard game-changing run in the third quarter

  • 5 broken tackles and 4 clutch first downs in the final stretch

  • He added 4 catches for 36 receiving yards, making him a dual-threat weapon all game long.

    With this performance, Williams now boasts:

    • 931 rushing yards

  • 10 rushing touchdowns

  • An adjusted EPA per rush of +0.15, ranking among the top 5 RBs in the NFL

  • From Forgotten Backup to RB1 — and Now Under Scrutiny

    When the Cowboys signed Williams as a free agent, most expected him to merely share carries — if he could even stay healthy. But he quickly surpassed Rico Dowdle and Jaydon Blue to claim 66% of offensive snaps — the most by any Dallas back.

    His success isn’t just explosive — it’s efficient:

    • 42% success rate per carry (top 10 NFL)

  • 27% of touches result in a first down or touchdown

  • Dallas’ run game now ranks 12th in total yards/game, up from bottom-third preseason projections

  • Coach Schottenheimer: “This Is Ridiculous”

    FULL PRESS CONFERENCE: Brian Schottenheimer introduced as head coach of  Dallas Cowboys

    When asked about the sudden doping test, Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer didn’t hold back:

    “I find it ridiculous. He’s been struggling for a year. Nobody cared when he was recovering. Nobody cared when he was the fourth man on the bench. Now he’s broken through and they pull him out for testing? If that’s what the league sees as progress, it’s sad.”

    He added:

    “There’s nothing fake about Javonte. He’s the real deal. He earned every yard out there.”

    Fan Outrage Explodes Online

    Within hours, hashtags like #FreeJavonte and #CowboysHaters began trending on X (formerly Twitter). Some of the top fan reactions included:

    • “He got tested because he cooked the Chiefs. Unreal.”

  • “NFL really can’t stand to see Dallas thriving.”

  • “They only test you when you’re great.

  • The Comeback Story of 2025?

    With Dallas now at 7-5-1 and pushing for a Wild Card berth, Javonte Williams is no longer an underdog — he’s the engine of a balanced Cowboys offense.

    From “just another signing” to NFL breakout star, his name is now being whispered in Comeback Player of the Year discussions — and maybe more.

    Conclusion

    Whether the test result comes back clean (as expected) or not, one thing is certain:

    Javonte Williams is no longer being ignored. He’s being feared.

    And the NFL just might have to get used to it.

    Jerry Jones Speaks Out, Criticizes the Controversy Surrounding the Cowboys WR After the Loss to the Lions
    DALLAS — Jerry Jones has finally had enough. In a fiery radio interview on 105.3 The Fan Tuesday morning, the Cowboys owner publicly ripped into star wide receiver George Pickens for his explosive, now-deleted Instagram beef with Richard Sherman following the Thanksgiving nightmare against the Detroit Lions. “I love everything George has done this year,” Jones said. “But let me be very clear — I don’t want to see him sitting on Instagram arguing with Richard Sherman or anybody else. Put the phone down, stop the social media nonsense, and focus on playing football. That’s what we pay him for.” Mic drop. The 82-year-old owner rarely calls out his own players by name in public, making this one of the sharpest rebukes in recent Cowboys history. Quick recap of the chaos: Lions game: CeeDee Lamb gets hurt and leaves early → Pickens disappears with a miserable 5 catches for 37 yards. Richard Sherman goes on TV and says Pickens “quit on routes” and showed zero effort. Pickens claps back with a savage (and quickly deleted) Instagram story: “Old man still talking.” Internet explodes. Despite the ugly performance, Pickens still leads the Cowboys in every major receiving stat (78 receptions, 1,179 yards, 8 TDs), but Jerry Jones just drew a line in the sand: the social media wars end today. “I have zero concern about George competing and helping us win games on the field,” Jones continued. “My only concern is him wasting time and energy on this Instagram back-and-forth instead of turning the page.” Will this public dressing-down light a fire under Pickens… or pour gasoline on an already raging controversy? One thing is certain — every snap this Sunday will be scrutinized like never before. Is Jerry Jones right to go nuclear on his star WR? Or did he just make the drama ten times worse?
