Dallas (toe) practiced fully Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Tampa Bay.
Dallas kicked off Week 3 prep with back-to-back limited sessions due to a toe injury, but his ability to handle every on-field rep Friday clears him to be available to the Vikings backfield this weekend. With Aaron Jones (knee) also gaining clearance to play Sunday, Dallas likely will remain relegated to a small workload, as the latter has just four touches on his 14 offensive snaps through two games on the campaign.
Dallas could be set for an expanded role in Week 3 against the Buccaneers, as Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports that Aaron Jones is in danger of missing the game due to a knee injury.
Jordan Mason is on IR due to a thumb injury, so if Jones is unable to play against the Buccaneers, Dallas and rookie sixth-round pick Demond Claiborne would be tasked with leading Minnesota's backfield. Claiborne has yet to register a rushing attempt in the regular season, while Dallas rushed twice for eight yards during Minnesota's Week 2 win over the Bears. The 28-year-old Dallas typically plays primarily on special teams, as he hasn't exceeded 35 rushing attempts in any regular season or scored a rushing touchdown since 2021.
Everyone sharing the ball with DeeJay, most valuable first.
Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.

Dallas could see an expanded role in Arizona's last two games of the season, as James Conner suffered a knee injury during Sunday's 36-30 loss to Carolina, per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site.
If Conner's sidelined moving forward by his knee injury and Trey Benson remains out due to an ankle injury, Dallas and Michael Carter would be Arizona's top two remaining running backs. Dallas scored a receiving touchdown on his only touch against the Panthers while Carter logged five carries and five catches. Arizona has little reason to rush Conner or Benson back, as the Cardinals have been eliminated from playoff contention.
The RBs priced immediately above and below him.
