Overview
- Jacksonville announced the returns of defensive lineman Matt Dickerson and running back DeeJay Dallas on Monday.
- Dickerson, 30, logged eight appearances, four starts and a 39% defensive snap share in 2025, the highest usage of his career.
- Dallas split 2025 between Carolina and Jacksonville with three appearances for each club and has been primarily a special-teams contributor.
- He is expected to provide return and third-phase value, with 2,254 career kick-return yards.
- The deals are described as veteran-minimum type moves with minimal cap impact as the team weighs Travis Etienne’s future, which reporting says could involve free agency rather than a franchise tag.
