No offensive looks
Dallas returned three kicks for 77 yards in Monday's 17-16 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Dallas played just three offensive snaps and didn't record a touch. He'll continue to take kick returns and make an impact on special teams, but his offensive role will be limited, especially once rookie Kenneth Walker (hernia) returns.

Big night in preseason finale
Dallas carried the ball 13 times for 75 yards and a touchdown and caught both his targets for nine yards in Friday's preseason game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: The third-year player was the second running back into the game for Seattle after Travis Homer, and while the duo split the workload through the first half, Dallas got the first possession of the second half to himself and made the most of it, racking up most of his rushing production and capping the drive with a one-yard TD plunge. Despite the big performance, he will likely head into the regular season No. 4 on the backfield depth chart, but Dallas could still have a role in the offense Week…read more

Leading receiver Thursday
Dallas rushed five times for 15 yards and caught four of five targets for 52 yards in Thursday's 27-11 preseason loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Dallas couldn't get going on the ground like his backfield mate Travis Homer, who carried five times for 44 yards. The two both have a good chance to make the roster, especially because Kenneth Walker (hernia) is suddenly uncertain for Week 1. However, Homer has been handling more reps with the first-team offense during the preseason, and his pass-blocking acumen gives him the edge over Dallas.

Effective in second half
Dallas rushed 10 times for 73 yards and caught his lone target for a 17-yard touchdown in Saturday's 32-25 preseason loss to the Steelers. He also returned two kicks for 41 yards.
Analysis: Dallas didn't play on offense until the second half, as he was the third Seahawks running back to take the field after rookie Kenneth Walker and Travis Homer. As it stands, Dallas and Homer are competing for the No. 3 running back spot, which will focus mostly on third downs, and Homer seemingly has the edge because of his pass-blocking ability. Fantasy managers shouldn't depend on either back, however, as Walker and Rashaad Penny (groin) should take the bulk of the workload when healthy.

Aiming for third-down duties
Dallas is expected to compete with Travis Homer for a third-down role following Tuesday's report that Chris Carson (neck) will retire, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dallas rushed 33 times for 138 yards and two touchdowns and reeled in 21 of 23 targets for 133 yards last season. However, he was out-snapped by Homer, with the latter player's greater reliability in pass protection earning him more work. Until one of the two emerges as the clear-cut top option on passing downs, Homer and Dallas will likely rotate snaps in those scenarios, though neither running back should be counted on for fantasy purposes as long as Rashaad Penny and Kenneth Walker are…read more

Rarely utilized on offense in 2021
Dallas finished the 2021 season with 33 carries for 138 yards and two touchdowns and 21 catches (23 targets) for 133 yards through 17 games. He also recorded 764 yards on 33 kick returns.
Analysis: Dallas played more than 40 percent of the offensive snaps just twice this season, and he averaged a mere 8.9 snaps per game. The second-year running back had a chance to secure an increased role when Chris Carson (neck) and Alex Collins (abdomen) suffered injuries. Instead, Rashaad Penny burst onto the scene over the final five weeks with 671 rushing yards (7.3 YPC) and six rushing touchdowns. Penny will be an unrestricted free agent in March but could be re-signed by the Seahawks, and Carson…read more

Practices fully Wednesday
Dallas (quadriceps) was a full practice participant Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dallas came out of the Seahawks' Week 17 win against the Lions with a bruised thigh, but it was revised to a quad issue upon the release of Wednesday's injury report. With an uncapped session under his belt, Dallas seems to be past the health concern. In any case, Dallas' touches have been sporadic while working behind Rashaad Penny over the last five games, as he's recorded 15 carries and seven catches on his way to 107 yards from scrimmage and one rushing score.

Suffers thigh bruise
Dallas picked up a thigh bruise in Sunday's 51-29 win over the Lions, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Dallas rushed once for one yard and returned a pair of kickoffs for 48 yards before getting injured. Rashaad Penny has dominated touches in Seattle's backfield lately and racked up 170 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in this one. If Dallas suits up for next week's season finale against Arizona, he'll likely split change-of-pace duties behind Penny with Travis Homer.

Snags four passes in loss
Dallas rushed four times for 15 yards and caught all four of his targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Bears. He also returned three kicks for 79 yards.
Analysis: After working in a timeshare with Rashaad Penny last week and finding the end zone, the second-year back took a back seat to Penny on Sunday. Dallas ran ahead of Travis Homer, who was activated off the COVID-19 list Saturday, but it's possible Homer takes the No. 2 role once he gets a full week of practice under his belt. However, Penny looks like the clear-cut starter for the final two regular-season games either way. It's worth noting that head coach Pete Carroll made Alex Collins a healthy…read more

Finds end zone in loss
Dallas rushed eight times for 41 yards and a touchdown while catching three of four targets for 11 more yards in Tuesday's 20-10 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Dallas appeared to have fallen out of favor after seeing just two touches last week while Rashaad Penny dominated on the ground. Head coach Pete Carroll reverted to a timeshare between the two backs, and Dallas turned out to be the better option from a fantasy perspective. Penny figures to see more action in games that the Seahawks either go up early in or dominate the time of possession in. Thus, Dallas may find himself seeing less usage in a matchup against the lowly Bears on Sunday.

Slated for change-of-pace role
Dallas is expected to serve as the top backup behind starting running back Rashaad Penny in Tuesday's game against the Rams, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Seattle elevated Josh Johnson from the practice squad to give the backfield a third option, but there aren't any other threats to the No. 2 role after Alex Collins (illness) and Travis Homer (illness) weren't reinstated from the reserve/COVID-19 list for the Week 15 contest. Adrian Peterson (lower back) wasn't promoted from the practice squad either, so unless the Seahawks are willing to give Johnson his first NFL snaps, Dallas looks like he'll be the top change-of-pace option. Look for Dallas…read more

Carries twice in win
Dallas rushed twice for 16 yards in Sunday's 33-13 win over the Texans. He also returned two kicks for 41 yards.
Analysis: Dallas recorded just 10 offensive snaps even though Travis Homer (calf) was out of the lineup, finishing behind Rashaad Penny (35) and Alex Collins (14). He's highly valuable for the Seahawks on special teams, but fantasy managers don't need to keep tabs on him unless Penny or Collins is injured.

Minimal usage in win
Dallas didn't record a touch in Sunday's 30-23 win over the 49ers. He returned five kicks for 133 yards.
Analysis: Dallas logged just two offensive snaps while Rashaad Penny, Travis Homer and Adrian Peterson all played at least 18 snaps. However, Dallas had his best game as a returner this season. With Alex Collins (abdomen) expected to return next week against the Texans, Dallas isn't expected to get much tread on offense.

Makes five grabs
Dallas rushed three times for four yards and caught all five of his targets for 27 yards in Monday night's 17-15 loss to Washington.
Analysis: Dallas saw starting tailback Alex Collins lose a fumble in the first half, which along with Seattle trailing later worked in his favor. Although Dallas wasn't particularly productive from a yardage standpoint, he still tied for the team lead in receptions, catching everything thrown his way. Given the Seahawks' banged-up backfield, Collins' underwhelming play and Dallas' presence as a pass catcher within a struggling offense, his stock is trending in the right direction ahead of Week 13's…read more

Could have significant role
Dallas is ready for a role in Monday's game at Washington, joining Alex Collins in the Seattle backfield with Rashaad Penny (hamstring) and Travis Homer (calf) ruled out, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Dallas took over the passing-down role from Homer last week and finished with five touches for 27 yards and a TD on 37 percent of snaps in the 23-13 loss to Arizona. With Homer and Penny set to be inactive Monday night and Collins extremely limited as a pass catcher, Dallas should play a good number of snaps, potentially even getting more playing time than Collins if the Seahawks find themselves chasing a deficit again. That said, Collins has been the lead runner for nearly two months now, and…read more

Scores in divisional loss
Dallas rushed four times for 25 yards and a touchdown and caught one pass (two targets) for two yards in Sunday's 23-13 loss to the Cardinals. He also recorded 20 yards on a kickoff return.
Analysis: Rashaad Penny left the game early with a hamstring injury, and Dallas handled a 37 percent snap share as a result. He scored his first touchdown of the season and was more efficient than Alex Collins (10 carries, 36 yards). If Penny misses time, Dallas could handle increased duties moving forward, though Travis Homer will compete for a similar role.

Dallas rushed once for six yards in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Jaguars.

One offensive snap
Dallas didn't record a touch in Monday's 13-10 loss to the Saints. He recorded 53 yards on the kick return.
Analysis: Alex Collins and Rashaad Penny handled a bulk of the workload, and Dallas logged just one offensive snap. His main usage is as a kick returner unless either Collins or Penny goes down with an injury again.

Solid effort in loss
Dallas carried four times for 17 yards and caught all five targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Dallas logged 22 offensive snaps, finishing behind Alex Collins (33) but comfortably ahead of Travis Homer (five), who registered 54 yards on three touches. Collins is uncertain for the Week 7 matchup against the Saints due to a hip injury, so Dallas could take on a larger role. However, Rashaad Penny (calf) may return from IR while Homer still should handle some passing-down work. Still, if Collins sits out, Dallas should be the temporary lead back considering it will be Penny's first game…read more

Tallies 39 yards
Dallas rushed four times for seven yards and caught both targets for 32 yards in Thursday's 26-17 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Alex Collins was the clear lead back with a 74 percent snap share, but Dallas out-snapped Travis Homer, 14-8. Dallas was even in the game during the two-minute drill at the end of the second quarter. The second-year running back could remain a part of the game plan if Chris Carson (neck) can't return next week against the Steelers. However, Dallas logged just four offensive snaps over the first four games before Carson sat out Thursday.

Could mix in Thursday
Dallas could handle some offensive work in Thursday's game versus the Rams following news that Chris Carson (neck) is inactive.
Analysis: Alex Collins is expected to operate as the lead back after rushing 10 times for 44 yards and a touchdown and catching two passes (two targets) for 34 yards in Sunday's win over the 49ers, while Travis Homer still has a firm grasp on the passing down work. However, Carson's absence could open the door slightly for Dallas, who has logged just four offensive snaps this season. Dallas should still be the No. 3 option in this rotation, however.

Stays out of offensive game plan
Dallas didn't record an offensive snap in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Vikings, but he did return one kick for 21 yards.
Analysis: Dallas isn't handling any offensive work even though Rashaad Penny (calf) is out of the lineup. Penny could return in Week 4 against the 49ers, so Dallas can be safely left off fantasy rosters.

Just three offensive snaps Sunday
Dallas rushed once for five yards and caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Dallas was one of four running backs to suit up for the season opener, as Alex Collins was a healthy scratch. However, even when Rashaad Penny left with a calf injury, Dallas finished with just three offensive snaps. Travis Homer logged two, and Chris Carson managed a whopping 42 (78 percent). Dallas and Homer likely have minimal fantasy value as long as Carson is upright.

Survives cutdown day
Dallas was one of five running backs to make the Seahawks' 53-man roster, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dallas may be the Seahawks' best route runner out of the backfield, and his preseason work as a returner likely helped guarantee him a role on the 53-man roster. However, he'll still struggle to earn much playing time on offense, as Travis Homer is considered the team's best pass-blocking running back, while Rashaad Penny and Alex Collins are the next men up behind Chris Carson.

Impresses as returner
Dallas caught all three of his targets for 27 yards and returned two kicks for 73 yards in Saturday's preseason loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Dallas didn't run the ball at all, but he showed flashes as a pass catcher and returner. The Seahawks likely won't provide Dallas with much backfield work as long as both Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny are healthy. However, Dallas' impact on special teams -- he blocked a punt Saturday as well -- and his receiving abilities make him a strong candidate for the No. 3 role. Alex Collins and Travis Homer (calf) are his primary competition.

Stands out in preseason loss
Dallas rushed five times for 24 yards, secured both of his targets for 45 yards and a touchdown, and returned two kickoffs for 55 yards in the Seahawks' 20-7 preseason loss to the Raiders on Saturday night.
Analysis: The University of Miami product made an excellent impression in his bid to win the third-down back role, with his 43-yard touchdown grab early in the third quarter offering a tangible reminder of his pass-catching acumen. Dallas easily outshined one of his primary competitors in Alex Collins during Saturday night's game, while Travis Homer (calf) remains on the PUP list and is therefore missing out on opportunities to make his own case for the job.

Competing for third-down role
Dallas could be a candidate for a role as Seattle's third-down back if his pass-blocking skills show improvement, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: As long as Chris Carson is healthy, Dallas likely won't receive many carries. Even if Carson gets hurt, both Rashaad Penny and Alex Collins will likely the next men up to lead the ground game. While Dallas profiles as the best route runner in the backfield, his pass-blocking skills weren't good enough last year to earn him much playing time.

Dallas will compete with Rashaad Penny, Travis Homer and Alex Collins for depth roles behind Chris Carson in the Seattle backfield, Brandon Gustafson of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
Analysis: A fourth-round pick last spring, Dallas finished his rookie year with 34/108/2 on the ground and 17/111/1 on 20 targets, playing 12 of 16 regular-season games. He even made starts in Weeks 8 and 9 when both Carson and Carlos Hyde (now with Jacksonville) were injured, with those two games accounting for all three TDs on the year. However, Dallas managed just 72 rushing yards and 25 receiving yards between the two starts, and he averaged only 3.2 YPC for the year. He could now compete with Penny…read more

Minimal usage as rookie
Dallas carried 34 times for 108 yards and two touchdowns and caught 17 of 20 targets for 111 yards and a touchdown over 12 games in the 2020 season.
Analysis: Dallas started Weeks 8 and 9 because both Chris Carson and Carlos Hyde were out with injuries, and he produced 97 yards from scrimmage and three total scores between those two games. When Carson and Hyde were healthy this year, Dallas was often left out of the game plan or scratched. His 3.2 yards per carry isn't exciting, but the Seahawks favored Dallas over Travis Homer (knee) in the run game.

Analysis: Dallas is back to full speed less than three weeks removed from suffering a Grade 3 ankle sprain. The rookie fourth-rounder will be available for Saturday's wild-card game against the Rams, but he'll likely stick to a special-teams role, as both Carlos Hyde and Rashaad Penny are also healthy.

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

The Seahawks won't rush the rookie back because they have enough backfield depth now that Carlos Hyde and Rashaad Penny are both healthy ahead of Saturday's wild-card game against the Rams.

Analysis: Dallas emerged from this past Sunday's win at Washington with a Grade 3 ankle sprain, which seems likely to keep him sidelined for the rest of the regular season.

Nursing Grade 3 sprain
Dallas suffered a Grade 3 ankle sprain during Sunday's 20-15 win over Washington, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The rookie fourth-round pick is dealing with a serious ankle sprain, an injury that will likely cause him to spend a multi-week stint on the sideline. That leaves Seattle a bit shallow for running back depth with Travis Homer (knee) already on IR, but the team does have three quality options remaining in the form of Chris Carson, Carlos Hyde and Rashaad Penny.

He could certainly miss time still, and a more definitive timeline should be provided when the practice week begins Wednesday.

No tread until garbage time
Dallas rushed four times for seven yards in Sunday's 40-3 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Dallas didn't log a carry until coach Pete Carroll opted to rest the starters at the end of the third quarter. When the rookie got on the field, he did little with his opportunities. As long as Chris Carson and Carlos Hyde are healthy, Dallas will be kept out of the game plan. That will be emphasized further once Rashaad Penny (knee) returns to the lineup.

Reels in two passes
Dallas caught two of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 17-12 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Dallas didn't play an offensive snap last week, but he enjoyed a larger role in this outing, logging just six fewer snaps than backfield mate Carlos Hyde's 18. This may have been partly due to the fact Hyde dealt with turf toe throughout the week. A decent workload could be expected on a weekly basis if Hyde's reps remain limited, but there's not meaningful fantasy relevance for Dallas in his current role.

Dallas garnered zero offensive snaps and 18 special-teams snaps during Monday's 23-17 win against the Eagles.
Analysis: With Chris Carson joining Carlos Hyde in the Seahawks backfield after sitting out four games due to a mid-foot sprain, Dallas was relegated to a strict special-teams role. The fourth-round rookie out of Miami collected 28 rush attempts between Weeks 8 and 11, but he managed only 3.3 yards per carry. Three total touchdowns over that span boosted Dallas' fantasy value; however, it doesn't appear he will have much involvement Week 13 against the Giants unless there is an injury above him on the…read more

Garners just three touches
Dallas rushed once for 13 yards and caught both of his targets for 19 yards in Thursday's 28-21 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Dallas lost reps to a practice squad running back for a second straight week, as Alex Collins out-snapped him last week against the Rams and Bo Scarbrough (hamstring) did the same against the Cardinals. Meanwhile, Carlos Hyde returned from a hamstring injury and operated as the team's lead back, turning 16 touches into 95 yards and a touchdown. Chris Carson (foot) is expected to return next week against the Eagles, so Dallas' fantasy value has essentially evaporated now.

Takes back seat in loss
Dallas rushed twice for eight yards and caught two of three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Dallas was expected to take on a large workload once again because Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) were inactive, but instead Alex Collins ended up leading the Seattle backfield in snaps and touches. This may have been Dallas' final opportunity for a significant workload, as Carson is expected to return this Thursday against the Cardinals.

Opportunity awaits Week 10
Dallas should rotate with Travis Homer during Sunday's game against the Rams following news that Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) are out, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks will play a third straight week with their top two running backs on the sidelines. Last week when the Seahawks were trailing almost the entire game, Homer led the backfield with a 48 percent snap share, and the two backs both handled nine touches. Homer finished with 80 total yards, including a 50-yard reception, and Dallas totaled 39 total yards and a score. While Dallas doesn't get much work in the passing game, he's the designated goal-line back and has rushed five times within…read more

Finds paydirt in losing effort
Dallas rushed seven times for 31 yards and a touchdown and caught both targets for eight yards in Sunday's 44-34 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: With Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) out for a second straight week, the Seahawks may have planned to give Dallas more work. However, the Bills took a two-score lead just 7:25 into the first quarter, and the Seahawks shifted even heavier toward the pass. Dallas still salvaged his day by punching in a four-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Travis Homer was more efficient, totaling 80 yards on nine touches. It's unclear whether Carson and Hyde will return for the Week 10…read more

Could start again Week 9
Dallas could be in store for a second straight start Sunday against the Bills with the Seahawks ruling out Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) for Sunday's game against the Bills, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: In last week's win over the 49ers, the Seahawks had Dallas and Travis Homer available as their only backs for the contest. Though Homer had slotted directly behind Carson and Hyde all season, he may have only been more of an emergency option Week 8, as he was questionable with a knee injury leading into the contest. As the lone Seattle back at full health, Dallas out-snapped Homer by a 54-7 margin, and despite finding the end zone twice, the rookie wasn't particularly efficient with his…read more

Finds end zone twice
Dallas carried the ball 18 times for 41 yards and a touchdown in Week 8 against San Francisco. He added five receptions for 17 yards and another score.
Analysis: Dallas took advantage of the absence of Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) to account for 18 of the team's 28 rush attempts. He wasn't very efficient -- he averaged only 2.3 yards per attempt and his longest rush of the day went for nine yards -- but did punch in a one-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter to clinch a victory for Seattle. More impressive was Dallas' involvement in the passing game, as he converted all five of his targets into receptions and made another trip to…read more

In line for more snaps
Dallas will be one of two active running backs for the Seahawks alongside Travis Homer (knee) with Chris Carson (foot) and Carlos Hyde (hamstring) sidelined for Sunday's contest against the 49ers.
Analysis: The Seahawks notably have allowed Russell Wilson to "cook" this season, ranking in the bottom 10 in rush play percentage (38.5 percent). Still, with the team down its top two RBs, and Homer tending to a knee contusion, there's a chance Dallas is the lead ball carrier Sunday. While Dallas has only played 23 snaps on offense in his brief career, the rookie fourth-rounder's six touches have translated to 41 yards from scrimmage.

Could handle lead role?
Dallas is the only Seattle tailback without an injury designation for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Chris Carson (foot) and Travis Homer (knee) are listed as questionable, while Carlos Hyde (hamstring) is doubtful. Given that Homer has mostly seen playing time on passing downs to this point in his career, it's possible Dallas could be the lead ball carrier if he and Homer are the only backs available Sunday. But Carson does have a history of battling through injuries, and coach Pete Carroll expects his starter to be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Stay tuned.

Catches two passes in loss
Dallas caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 37-34 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Chris Carson left in the second quarter with a foot injury, opening the door for Dallas to get on the field after logging no offensive snaps in Seattle's last game. The rookie was solid in his opportunities, and he could be counted on more moving forward because Travis Homer also exited with a knee contusion. If both Carson and Homer are forced to sit out next week against the 49ers, Dallas would line up as the No. 2 running back, a role that would yield a handful of touches.

No carries versus Vikings
Dallas did not receive an offensive snap during Sunday night's 27-26 win over Minnesota.
Analysis: The rookie back out of Miami fielded four offensive touches during a Week 4 road win over the Dolphins, but he was not incorporated into the offensive game plan against the Vikings. Dallas did garner 18 special-teams snaps during the contest, but at running back, only Chris Carson and Travis Homer had any involvement offensively.

Could rotate in Sunday
Dallas could log his first offensive snaps in Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Dallas made his NFL debut in Week 3's win over the Cowboys but only played on special teams. He could get his first shot Sunday if Chris Carson (knee) and Carlos Hyde (shoulder) are unable to play. Both running backs recovered from serious injuries this offseason and were limited participants in Thursday's practice. If neither Carson nor Hyde suits up, Dallas would operate as the No. 2 RB behind Travis Homer.

Not suiting up Sunday
Dallas (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Falcons.
Analysis: The rookie fourth-round pick will put his NFL debut on hold, as Chris Carson and Carlos Hyde, and to a lesser extent Travis Homer, will handle the backfield workload. Dallas had an impressive training camp, showcasing his pass-catching abilities, so he's still in the Seahawks' plans this season.

Facing tough path to snaps
Dallas could be stuck on special teams or the inactive list for much of his rookie season, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The unusual circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic add an extra layer of difficulty to the college-to-pro transition, and Dallas faces the added challenge of landing in a crowded backfield with Chris Carson (hip), Rashaad Penny (knee), Carlos Hyde (shoulder) and former college teammate Travis Homer. Injuries partially explain the depth, but it appears all besides Penny are expected to be ready for Week 1, which likely means Homer and Dallas will compete for the No. 3 job behind Carson…read more
