DeeJay Dallas looks to secure a place in the Jacksonville Jaguars' running back rotation as training camp approaches. The 27-year-old, who joined the Jaguars late last season, has primarily contributed on special teams, returning kicks and logging minimal offensive yards. With established backs Bhayshul Tuten, LeQuint Allen, and Chris Rodriguez already in the fold, Dallas may need to continue excelling on special teams to earn a spot on the 53-man roster. His performance will be closely monitored during training camp.
