DeeJay Dallas - Page 4 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Sits out first wild-card practice Dallas (ankle/quadriceps) was listed as a non-participant for Tuesday's walk-through practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Though Dallas was off the field for the start of prep for Saturday's wild-card game in San Francisco, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune relays that the running back is fully expected to suit up this weekend. After Travis Homer (ankle) was moved to injured reserve prior to last week's regular-season finale, Dallas took over as the top change-of-pace option behind lead back Kenneth Walker in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Rams. Dallas played 11 of the Seahawks' 70 snaps on offense and finished with two carries for 29 yards and one catch for minus-3 yards.

Minimal role in win Dallas rushed twice for 29 yards and caught his lone target for a three-yard loss in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Rams. He also returned two punts for 24 yards.

Impact In the must-win game, rookie Kenneth Walker played a whopping 61 offensive snaps while Dallas played just 11 offensive snaps. This may be a peak into how the duo will split reps during the postseason, but Dallas is a skilled pass-catcher that will be useful if the Seahawks fall behind in Saturday's wild-card game versus the 49ers.

Good to go for Sunday Dallas (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Impact Even though Kenneth Walker and Dallas both didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, the two running backs will approach the weekend without a designation after both logged some reps during Friday's session. Walker was a full participant in the workout, while Dallas was limited, but the latter still looks like he'll be in strong position to serve as the top change-of-pace option behind the former. Dallas' main competition for the backup role, Travis Homer (ankle), is listed as doubtful and appears likely to miss a second straight game, while the lone other running back on the active roster, Godwin Igwebuike, is typically used on special teams. While Homer was sidelined for last week's win over the Jets, Dallas was productive during his time on the field, carrying seven times for 43 yards and recording three receptions for 55 yards on four targets.

Another missed practice Dallas (ankle) didn't practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact For a second session in a row, Dallas was absent, which also can be said for backfield mates Kenneth Walker (ankle/illness) and Travis Homer (ankle). As such, the Seahawks backfield has question marks with one practice to go this week, some of which may clear up upon the release of Friday's injury report. If Walker continues to be the team's lead runner Sunday versus the Rams, he'll take on most of the RB reps, but Dallas has been able to make an impact over the last two contests, notching 18 touches for 140 yards from scrimmage.

Sits out first Week 18 practice Dallas (ankle) didn't take part in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Dallas sat out Weeks 14 and 15 due to a high-ankle issue, but he's been able to play in both of the last two games, racking up a cumulative nine carries for 53 yards and nine catches (on 10 targets) for 87 yards. His absence to kick off Week 18 prep may be a precaution in order to avoid a setback leading up to the regular-season finale, but with Kenneth Walker (ankle/illness) and Travis Homer (ankle) also sitting out Wednesday, the Seahawks' backfield situation again is up in the air ahead of Sunday's contest against the Rams.

Just short of 100 scrimmage yards Dallas carried the ball seven times for 43 yards and caught three of four targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 23-6 win over the Jers.

Impact The running back put together the best game of his career, nearly reaching 100 scrimmage yards for the first time in a game and leading the Seahawks in receiving yards on the day. Dallas remains behind Kenneth Walker on the Seattle depth chart, but both RBs could be productive in Week 18 against a Rams defense that just surrendered 161 scrimmage yards and two rushing TDs to Austin Ekeler.

Cleared to play again Dallas (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

Impact Dallas returned from a two-game absence last week and caught six passes for 32 yards in a 24-10 loss to the Chiefs. He's unlikely to see that many targets even if he handles passing downs again, though there is a degree of opportunity with fellow Seattle running backs Kenneth Walker (ankle) and Travis Homer (ankle) listed as questionable. Walker, at least, is expected to play, and he figures to dominate carries again so long as he avoids setbacks with his ankle.

Remains limited Thursday Dallas (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Dallas was joined by Seattle's No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker (ankle) as limited after the latter missed Wednesday's session, while Travis Homer (ankle) has yet to practice this week. As a result, Dallas appears to be the better bet to get work behind Walker this Sunday against the Jets, assuming both are active and Homer is inhibited or sidelined. Operating as the No. 2 RB this past Saturday in Kansas City, Dallas turned 46 percent of the snaps into eight touches for 42 yards from scrimmage, which was a distant second to Walker's 53 percent, 28 touches and 105 total yards.

Limited Wednesday Dallas (ankle) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Meanwhile, Kenneth Walker (ankle) and Travis Homer (ankle) were held out of drills to begin Week 17 prep. While Dallas seemingly is the healthiest of the running back trio, Walker's lack of participation likely can be chalked up as maintenance to ensure he's as healthy as possible for game day. Dallas was only slightly behind Walker in terms of snaps this past Saturday in Kansas City (35 versus 40 out of 76), but his touch count (eight) was a distant second to the rookie's 28. Even so, Dallas may be the Seahawks' No. 2 back again this weekend after Homer sprained his ankle Week 16.

Returns from ankle injury Dallas (ankle) rushed twice for 10 yards and caught all six of his targets for 32 yards in Saturday's 24-10 loss to Kansas City.

Impact Dallas returned from an ankle injury that cost him two games, promptly reclaiming his role as the team's receiving back behind starter Kenneth Walker (26/107/0). The latter jammed his already banged-up ankle on a couple of runs Saturday, but head coach Pete Carroll confirmed that his starter made it through the game in one piece. If Walker suits up for next Sunday's tilt against the Jets, Dallas would remain a non-factor in fantasy in Week 17.

DECEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Suiting up Saturday Dallas (ankle) is listed as active Saturday at Kansas City.

Impact The same can be said for fellow running back Kenneth Walker, who didn't practice all week due to an ankle injury and what coach Pete Carroll referred to as back spasms. Dallas himself has missed the last two games with a high-ankle issue, something that kept him to limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday. While Dallas appears to be healthier than Walker at the moment, an available Walker likely will be the headliner out of Seattle's backfield Saturday, with Travis Homer and Dallas as the reserve options.

Seahawks down 2 defensive starters; Walker expected to play

The Seattle Seahawks will be without starting defensive tackle Al Woods and safety Ryan Neal for Saturday’s game at Kansas City because of injuries

DECEMBER 22, 2022 • Associated Press

Return likely Saturday Coach Pete Carroll said Thursday that Dallas (ankle) is slated to play Saturday in Kansas City, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Dallas suffered a high-ankle sprain Week 13 at the Rams, which so far has forced two consecutive absences. He was able to get back on the field Wednesday as a limited participant and maintained that activity level Thursday, with the Seahawks listing him as him as questionable for Week 16 action. Carroll expects both Dallas and Kenneth Walker (ankle/back) to be active Saturday, something that'll be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If the proceeding comes to pass, Walker almost certainly will lead Seattle's backfield, while Travis Homer and Dallas will be available in reserve roles.

DECEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Saturday Dallas (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game in Kansas City, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact While the team's No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker (ankle/back) didn't practice Tuesday or Wednesday, Dallas followed up Tuesday's absence with a limited showing one day later. Dallas thus appears to be in a better spot, health-wise, than Walker heading into the weekend, while Travis Homer is the sole healthy member of the backfield on Seattle's active roster. In the end, the state of the position group will gain some clarity once the Seahawks post their list of inactives about 90 minutes before Saturday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

DECEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Wednesday Dallas (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact The limited session marks Dallas' first official on-field work since suffering an injury Week 13 that head coach Pete Carroll called "somewhat of a high-ankle issue" at the time, per Boyle. Dallas predictably has missed two outings as a result, but his return to drills Wednesday may indicate that a return to game action is possible Saturday at Kansas City. Thursday's injury report could be telling for his chances to do so, which also can be said for the Seahawks' top running back Kenneth Walker (ankle), who has yet to practice this week. After the team waived Tony Jones on Wednesday, Travis Homer is the only healthy member of the backfield on the active roster.

DECEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Non-participant at walkthrough Dallas (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

Impact Dallas has been sidelined for the Seahawks' previous two games and is in danger of missing a third. He will presumably need to get in some work at practice this week in order to get the green light for Saturday's game against Kansas City. No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker (ankle) was also a non-participant Tuesday, which leaves Travis Homer and Tony Jones as the only healthy backs on the depth chart.

DECEMBER 16, 2022 • Associated Press

Questionable for Thursday Dallas (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against San Francisco, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact His status is of less interest for fantasy purposes now that Kenneth Walker (ankle) doesn't have a game designation. Dallas and Walker both missed Sunday's loss to Carolina, which allowed Travis Homer to step into the lead role. Homer played 91 percent of the offensive snaps, yet he had only 11 touches.
