Dead lifts are most certainly necessary for any athletes weight lifting regimen, it's one of the most important lifts for overall strength. Additionally, if you don't exercise your back it will be weaker and more prone to injury, not vice versa. As long as he's lifting properly (he has pro trainers, so he is), he should be doing deadlifts and other back workouts.
