Alex Dafnis Alex Dafnis 6'3" | 215 lbs | TE/LB Cactus Shadows | 2026 State AZ was a matchup nightmare all night, finishing with eight catches for 74 yards while showing off the versatility that makes him such a unique weapon. At 6’3” and around 215 pounds, he’s got the size to line up as a traditional tight end but the athleticism to slide out wide or even into the backfield, which Cactus Shadows used a few times to get him into some favorable matchups. He worked the seams and play‑action stick routes with ease, using his big frame to box out smaller defenders, and when plays broke down he freelanced into space, always giving his quarterback a reliable outlet. What stood out most was how often he was the go‑to option in high‑leverage downs and red‑zone situations, towering over DBs and coming up with chain‑moving grabs. His feel for finding soft spots in coverage and making himself available made him the steadying presence Dixon leaned on when the game got tight.
