Buccaneers' Dominique Dafney: Pair of grabs in preseason finale
Dafney secured both targets for 22 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-20 preseason win over the Ravens on Saturday night.
Dafney checked in second among the Buccaneers' tight ends with 21 snaps while tying for the position lead in receptions and setting the pace in receiving yards. The 26-year-old had a serviceable preseason relative to opportunity, posting a 4-33 line on five targets. However, with David Wells seemingly enjoying the inside track to the No. 3 tight end role after recording a touchdown Saturday night, Dafney may have to beat out rookie fifth-round pick Payne Durham to garner a spot on the final roster.

He was used sparingly in a hybrid tight end/fullback role by Hackett in Green Bay, a role currency occupied by Andrew Beck in Denver, who caught two of three targets for 52 yards Week 1 at Seattle.

Dominique Dafney: Let go by Green Bay
The Packers waived Dafney on Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Dafney appeared in 15 regular season games over the last two years in Green Bay and caught four of six targets for 60 yards and one score. The move signals that the Packers are confident that Robert Tonyan (knee) will be ready for Week 1, as Dafney was a likely candidate to make the initial 53-man roster if Tonyan wasn't activated off the PUP list before the start of the regular season.

Packers' Dominique Dafney: Draws few targets in 2021
Dafney was targeted four times and caught two passes for 34 yards over 10 appearances in the 2021 season.
The 10 appearances were twice as many as Dafney tallied the season before, but he finished with relatively the same stats he put up in 2020 and did not find the end zone. The Packers will have the option to bring him back for another season or allow him to seek opportunities elsewhere.
