Professional Career
Draft
Dunn went undrafted in the 2022 NFLHC Draft.
Arizona Cardinals
2022 Season
Dunn was signed as a priority undrafted free agent by the Arizona Cardinals. He and fellow priority UDFA Darian Sitton impressed in camp, enough to earn spots on the Cardinals practice squad in 2022.
Following a terrible Week 2 2022 performance, the Cardinals released wide receiver Ibrahim Smiley, and promoted Dunn from the practice squad.
In Week 14, 2022, Dunn was given the opportunity to return punts as a pro for the first time. He immediately returned one for a touchdown as the Cardinals steamrolled the Saints, 35-21, cementing his place in Cardinals lore.
2023 Season
Dunn started the season as the Cardinals punt returner, and was a backup slot receiver to Ricky Chambers, Tom Oldham, and kick returner Norm Spencer. Following Week 7, the Cardinals waived Dunn to the practice squad, as he'd only put together 32 punt return yards on the season (T-25th in the NFL to that point), and just 1 return yard over the most recent four games.
New York Jets
2023 Season
Following Week 14, the New York Jets signed Dunn off of the Cardinals practice squad.
