Jaguars Re-Sign DeeJay Dallas for RB Depth

Monday, February 16, 7:52 AM

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced on Monday that they re-signed running back DeeJay Dallas to an undisclosed deal. Dallas appeared in only six regular-season games in 2025, split between the Carolina Panthers and the Jaguars. He only saw three rushing attempts for 21 yards and didn't catch his only target in the passing game. The 27-year-old also contributed on special teams, returning 12 kickoffs for 321 yards. He was a healthy scratch in the Wild-Card Round loss to the Buffalo Bills in the playoffs. Dallas most likely will face an uphill battle for playing time in Jacksonville in 2026, but he could have more of a chance for a role in the Jags' backfield if the team lets Travis Etienne Jr. walk as a free agent. The former fourth-rounder by the Seattle Seahawks in 2020 out of Miami has a total of 124 rushing attempts for 538 yards and four touchdowns in his six years in the NFL with four different teams.

Kyle Monangai Remains a Dynasty Hold

Sunday, April 26, 12:51 PM

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai finished his rookie season as the fantasy RB30, and his situation appears stable heading into Year 2. The 2025 seventh-round pick got off to a predictably slow start and spent most of the season in a change-of-pace role behind D'Andre Swift, but he flashed moments of fantasy dominance that could show up with more regularity in his second season. From Weeks 7 through 13, which included a Week 9 contest missed by Swift and in which Monangai ran for 176 yards, the rookie was the RB11, scoring five touchdowns over that stretch. The Bears made no changes to the position through either free agency or the draft, suggesting a comfort level with how things went last season. Monangai's ceiling will be limited as long as Swift is in the lineup, but he has already provided glimpses of what he can do with a full workload, and he saw more usage in the passing game down the stretch of the regular season and into the playoffs. If that trend continues, RotoBaller's dynasty RB28 could add standalone value beyond what he offers as an insurance back.
