Israel Abanikanda, RB Cowboys | Dynasty Ranking

Israel Abanikanda carries a 48.0 dynasty score, ranking 128 at RB. Abanikanda is 23 years old with 1 year remaining on his contract and is trending downwards in production.

His 50th percentile efficiency and usage grades explain the gap between his production and expected usage. His contract situation of $1,132,500 APY and 1 year remaining provides some role security, indicating he will likely remain with the team. However, the presence of other running backs on the roster may impact his playing time.

No injury entries in 2025. Abanikanda’s durability grade at the 75th percentile and age of 23 suggest a moderate risk profile.

Abanikanda’s snap share percentage of 8.0% is stable. The Cowboys’ running back position has competition, with Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard also in the mix, which could limit his playing time.

The Cowboys’ west coast system, coordinated by Klayton Adams, features a 42.7% run rate and moderate use of play-action passes. The run-heavy approach helps Abanikanda’s production, but the moderate use of play-action passes may limit his ceiling.

Declining. Abanikanda’s production is declining, as shown by his Verdict grade at the 21st percentile and stable usage.

Abanikanda’s ceiling is RB2-RB3, with a high volume of carries and a strong finish. His floor is RB4-RB5, with a low volume of carries and a mediocre finish.
