Demercado, donning his familiar No. 31 (worn previously with the Cardinals under OC Klayton Adams, now in Dallas), hit the practice field immediately. He brings elite breakaway speed — nine runs over 10 yards on just 44 carries last season — plus solid pass-blocking skills and instant system familiarity. With Dallas thin at RB after cuts, Demercado adds depth, explosiveness, and versatility, making him a crucial upgrade for their backfield.
