The Arizona Cardinals signed former Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas to a three-year deal worth $8.25 million on Tuesday with upside for the deal to be worth $10.5 million, according to a source. Dallas was taken by Seattle in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL draft out of the University of Miami in Florida and he ran for 468 yards and four touchdowns on 112 rushing attempts in his four years with the team. The 25-year-old also added 61 catches for 396 yards and another score in 61 games (two starts). He will remain in the NFC West and is currently listed as the team's No. 3 RB on the depth chart behind James Conner and Emari Demercado. Dallas will likely make his biggest impact as a return man on special teams, leaving him no fantasy appeal in most setups.
Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas could see a small bump in his workload in Week 14, with both Kenneth Walker III (oblique) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) ailing. Both backs worked their way up to a full practice on Friday and are listed as questionable for Sunday's game, but are expected to play. Unless both of his fellow running backs are held out or suffer a setback midgame, Dallas is unlikely to be utilized as Seattle's primary back. Even with Walker out in Weeks 11 and 12, Dallas saw a total of just three carries and three targets. In a matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, who have allowed just 66.7 rushing yards per game in the last three weeks, Dallas should not be counted on to do much even if he does take over the Seahawks backfield.
Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (shoulder) and tight end Colby Parkinson (biceps) are active for Sunday's game against the Washington Commanders. Both players had been listed as questionable but were expected to play after logging full practices on Friday. Dallas is the Seahawks' No. 3 running back, so while he should earn a few snaps, he's not on the fantasy radar. Meanwhile, Parkinson gets on the field during two-tight end sets but doesn't earn enough volume to generate any fantasy appeal. Both players can be left on waivers.
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll indicated on Monday that running back DeeJay Dallas (shoulder) is "pretty sore," but he is still optimistic of his chances to get back, per Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle. Dallas sustained a right shoulder injury following a punt during Week 9's 37-3 blowout loss to game the Baltimore Ravens. The 25-year-old third-stringer's next chance to "get back" comes next Sunday versus the Washington Commanders, but it remains to be seen what type of practice activity, or lack thereof, he is able to log ahead of the action. Dallas' presence doesn't really affect the fantasy value of Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet very much, anyway, as he's operated as more of a special-teams player this season.
Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (shoulder) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. He is officially questionable to return. The 25-year-old had not logged a touch prior to his departure, so his injury shouldn't prove to be too costly for the Seahawks or fantasy managers. Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet will continue to operate as Seattle's primary running backs.
DeeJay Dallas Expected To Serve As No. 2 RB Against Cardinals
Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas is expected to serve as the No. 2 behind Kenneth Walker III in Week 7 against the Arizona Cardinals because rookie Zach Charbonnet (hamstring) is not expected to play. Charbonnet was listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report. Charbonnet hasn't had any standalone fantasy value all year while working behind Walker through six weeks, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect Dallas to have any, either, despite the solid matchup against Arizona at home. Coming into Sunday's divisional clash, Dallas has only five carries for 14 yards and three catches for 11 yards in five games played.
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (ribs) and running back DeeJay Dallas (illness) are officially active for Week 3 versus the Carolina Panthers. Metcalf had been listed as questionable after missing two practices leading up to Sunday's game. In the end, though, Metcalf is suiting up. He has nine catches, 122 yards, and one touchdown this season. The 25-year-old should be viewed as a solid fantasy WR2. On the other hand, Dallas is merely a depth piece for Seattle and should be avoided in all fantasy leagues.
DeeJay Dallas Questionable For Week 3 Against Carolina
Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's Week 3 game against the Carolina Panthers. The Seahawks released their final injury report on Friday, which listed quite a few players as questionable. However, head coach Pete Carroll, ever the optimist, said that Dallas and safety Julian Love (hamstring) are the only two questionable players he's "uncertain" about, according to beat writer Michael-Shawn Dugar. Dallas missed Friday's practice with an illness and if he can't suit up on Sunday then rookie running back Zach Charbonnet would be in line for a snap increase against the Panthers. Neither player has done much of anything up to this point in the season, though.
Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (knee) and running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quadriceps) are both active for the wild-card game on Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers. Fant and Dallas were listed as questionable to play, but they'll both be active in a tough matchup against one of the best defenses in the NFL. Fant will be on the cheap side in DFS, but he's touchdown-dependent. In the two previous matchups against San Fran in 2022, he caught seven of his eight targets for 43 yards and one touchdown. Rookie Kenneth Walker III is the unquestioned lead back in Seattle's backfield, so there will be very few snaps and touches available for Dallas on Saturday. He should be avoided in playoff leagues in this one.
Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quad) was considered questionable after being listed as limited in the team's practice on Thursday but is expected to suit up for a Wild-Card matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Dallas was given opportunities in each of Seattle's last three regular-season games and should continue to serve in a complementary role to starter Kenneth Walker III. He projects as an uninspiring DFS option this weekend against a San Francisco defense that has allowed the fewest PPR fantasy points to running backs this year.
