The Cowboys Running Back Situation is NOT What People Think. Analysis + Breakdown Before Camp

Zac and FootsDaKing break down one of the most interesting Cowboys position battles heading into camp: the fight for the RB2 spot behind the starter.

Phil Mafah brings size, power, contact balance, and a downhill running style that could give Dallas a physical element in short-yardage and late-game situations. Jaydon Blue brings speed, juice, pass-game ability, and the kind of big-play threat this offense has been missing.

So which back gives the Cowboys more value? Which one fits Brian Schottenheimer’s offense better? And could this battle say a lot about what Dallas wants its run game to look like in 2026?

Zac and Foots talk through the strengths, concerns, roster fit, and what each player needs to show once training camp begins.
