Phil Mafah Rising as Cowboys RB

Phil Mafah, the seventh-round rookie running back for the Dallas Cowboys, is quietly making waves during OTAs—earning first-team reps and scoring touchdowns in red zone drills. Standing 6’1” and packing 234 pounds, he’s a downhill force built to grind out tough yards. While Javonte Williams holds the starting role, Mafah’s consistent college growth at Clemson—rushing over 1,100 yards as a senior—suggests he’s ready to carve out a niche. With potential contributions on special teams or pass protection, he’s not just depth—he’s a player with real upside who could stick around if he proves he’s got the grit and intangibles to thrive.
