DeeJay Dallas notched a 22-yard rush and five-yard reception in the Cardinals’ Week 18 win over the 49ers.
The No. 2 back behind Michael Carter with James Conner, Trey Benson and Emari Demercado all sidelined, Dallas mustered two touches in a 47-point Cardinals outburst. Playing on a one-year deal, Dallas seemed to only ever fall down the depth chart, but he was active all 17 games as a special teamer. The third unit is the key to his NFL future.
Cardinals agreed to terms with RB DeeJay Dallas, formerly of the Seahawks.
Dallas appeared in all 17 games for the Seahawks in 2023 but only saw 16 touches. The former fourth-round pick had seen just over 50 touches in each of his previous three NFL seasons. Despite the lack of looks on offense, Dallas remained a core member of the Seahawks’ special teams unit. He served as the team’s top kick and punt returner while also filling other special teams roles. Dallas will remain a special teams ace with the Cardinals but could see his usage on offense rise as well.
DeeJay Dallas rushed one time for six yards in the Seahawks’ Week 13 loss to the Cowboys.
Completely mothballed behind every-down back Zach Charbonnet in Ken Walker’s (oblique) continued absence, Dallas’ only handle came after Charbonnet departed in the waning moments with a knee injury. Dallas would be the Seahawks’ lead back for Week 14 against the 49ers if neither Walker nor Charbonnet can go.
DeeJay Dallas rushed two times for 10 yards in the Seahawks’ Week 12 loss to the 49ers.
Dallas caught his only target for a five-yard gain. As many expected, Dallas was a distant RB2 for Seattle, even with Ken Walker sidelined. He isn’t worth a stash even in deep dynasty leagues.
