Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus caught four of his five targets for 26 yards during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Title game. Zaccheaus also caught a two-point conversion in the third quarter. Zaccheaus' five targets matched him with No.2 wideout Dyami Brown. His yardage total was the fourth-most among Washington pass catchers. This was a nice bounce-back showing for Zaccheaus, as he caught just three passes for 19 yards in the wild-card round and did not get on the scoresheet in the divisional round. However, during the final three weeks of the regular season, Zacchaeus was a key part of the offense as he tallied 68.7 yards per game with three touchdowns. Zaccheaus will likely continue to operate as a depth wide receiver if he returns to Washington in 2025.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (hip) is off the injury report and good to go for Sunday's NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Zaccheaus opened the week as a limited participant but was able to log a full session on Friday to avoid a designation. During the playoffs, Zaccheaus has taken a step back as Dyami Brown has grown into the No.2 WR role. As a result, Zacchaeus has caught just three passes for 19 yards. However, during the final three weeks of the regular season, Zaccheaus averaged 68.7 yards per game with three touchdowns. With the Commanders entering this game as underdogs, they may find themselves trailing at times, which could set up a positive game script for the slot receiver. He is a WR3 at a value price in DFS on Sunday.

According to the team, Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (hip) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status on Friday. If he is unable to upgrade to full participation, he may carry a questionable tag into Sunday's conference championship. Last weekend, during their upset victory over the Detroit Lions, Zacchaeus could not catch any of his two targets. During the wild-card round, Zaccheaus caught three passes for 19 yards. However, during the final three weeks of the regular season, Zacchaeus was a key part of the Washington air attack, averaging 68.7 yards per game with five receptions per contest and three touchdowns. Dyami Brown has surpassed him as the No.2 option on the depth chart, but Zaccheaus still carries flex value in DFS at a much lower price.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (hip) put in a limited practice in the first session of the week on Wednesday. Zaccheaus had to come out of the Divisional Round win on Saturday against the Detroit Lions briefly with a hip ailment, but he was able to return and finish out the game. The 27-year-old was targeted only once in the upset victory but didn't come down with a catch. As long as he doesn't have any setbacks the next two days, Zaccheaus should be available for Washington as they look to punch their ticket to the Super Bowl by beating the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship game on Sunday. Zaccheaus had one catch for 10 yards in the first meeting with the Eagles on Nov. 14, but he went off for five catches, 70 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets in the second meeting on Dec. 22. He'll be a boom/bust DFS sleeper play at the receiver position this weekend.
Jan 22, 2025 7:17 PM EST
According to Ben Standig of The Athletic, Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (groin) has returned to Saturday's playoff game against the Detroit Lions. Zaccheaus exited the contest during the second quarter. Before leaving, he was targeted two times but was unable to catch any of them. He should continue to operate as the No.3 wide receiver in the Washington passing attack.
Jan 18, 2025 10:27 PM EST
According to the team, Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (groin) is questionable to return to Saturday's playoff game against the Detroit Lions. Zaccheaus sustained this injury during the second quarter. Before exiting, Zaccheaus was targeted twice but was unable to catch any of them. While sidelined, Terry McLaurin and Dyami Brown will lead the Washington passing attack.
Jan 18, 2025 9:53 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus had a disappointing showing last weekend but should be poised for a bounce back showing in Detroit on Saturday night. Last weekend, Zaccheaus caught all three of his targets for a mere 19 yards. However, during his previous three games (Weeks 16 through 18), Zacchaeus averaged an impressive 68.7 yards per game and scored three touchdowns. While Dyami Brown (hamstring) has returned from his injury and should continue to have a role in the starting lineup, fantasy managers should expect Zaccheaus to return to form in a potential high-scoring affair in Detroit. Zacchaeus is a viable WR3 play in DFS, as the Lions have allowed the second-most PPR points per game to opposing wideouts.
Jan 16, 2025 5:19 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus had a quiet showing during their wild-card victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In this game, Zaccheaus brought in all three of his targets for just 19 yards. His three targets were the lowest among other Washington wide receivers. The 27-year-old found a role in the passing attack late in the season with Noah Brown (kidney) on the injured reserve. During the final three weeks of the season, Zaccheaus averaged a solid 68.7 yards per game and found the end zone three times but hit a skid in the wild-card game. Zaccheaus should have a good opportunity to bounce back next Saturday evening, facing a struggling Detroit secondary that has allowed the second-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.
Jan 12, 2025 11:45 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is an intriguing value play in DFS formats this weekend, facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Since Noah Brown (kidney) has been placed on the injured reserve, Zaccheaus has grown into the No.2 wide receiver over the past four weeks. During this span, Zaccheaus has seen a solid 6.5 targets per game and averaged 15.3 PPR points per game. After tallying just 36 yards in Week 15, he averaged an impressive 68.7 yards per game over the final three games of the season. During this three-game stint, he found the end zone three times. Facing a Tampa Bay secondary that has allowed the seventh-most PPR points to opposing wideouts makes Zaccheaus a strong value play in DFS formats this weekend.
Jan 10, 2025 5:13 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus caught two of his five targets for 51 yards during their victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday afternoon. Zaccheaus could have had an even better output but was unable to haul in a 40-yard strike from wide receiver Dyami Brown on a trick play. However, Zaccheaus' five targets tied him for second-most on the team. His yardage output was also the second-highest on the team, only behind Terry McLaurin. With Noah Brown (kidney) sidelined, Zaccheaus has begun to carve out a prominent role in the Washington offense. During Weeks 16 and 17, Zaccheaus averaged a strong 77.5 yards per game and tallied three scores over this stretch. Operating as the clear No.2 wideout in the offense, Zaccheaus carries solid flex upside heading into the Wild Card round.
Jan 5, 2025 4:39 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus carries solid WR3 upside in a Week 18 tilt against the Dallas Cowboys. With Noah Brown (kidney) and Dyami Brown (hamstring) sidelined over the past two weeks, Zaccheaus has emerged as the new No.2 option in the Washington passing attack. Over the past two weeks, the 27-year-old has seen at least eight targets per game and tallied 77.5 yards per game. During this span, he has found the back of the end zone three times. With Noah Brown still on the IR, fantasy managers should feel confident locking Zaccheaus into their lineup in deeper 3WR formats. He also carries solid upside, given the favorable matchup against the Cowboys, who have allowed the sixth-most PPR points to opposing wide receivers this season.
Jan 3, 2025 5:36 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus caught eight of his nine targets for 85 yards and a score during their victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday evening. Zaccheaus got on the scoresheet early catching the first score of the game on a seven-yard strike from Jayden Daniels. Zaccheaus' targets, receptions, and yards paced all other Washington pass catchers in this contest and was Daniels' go-to option all evening. His longest reception went for 16 yards. With Noah Brown (kidney) and Dyami Brown (hamstring) both sidelined, Zaccheaus has made the most of his opportunities. Over the past two games he has scored three touchdowns and tallied at least 70 yards in each game. He should be viewed as a solid flex option in Week 18 facing the Dallas Cowboys.
Dec 30, 2024 12:03 AM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is set for an increased role on Sunday evening with Dyami Brown (hamstring) ruled out. Last weekend, Zacchaeus made the most of his opportunities by bringing in five of his eight targets for 70 yards and two scores. Zacchaeus saw his role increase once Brown exited early with a hamstring injury. Heading into Week 17, Zacchaeus sits as the lone No.2 option in the wide receiver room behind Terry McLaurin with Noah Brown (kidney) on the IR. Over his past three games, Zaccheaus has seen an average of 5.0 targets per game and has averaged 40.0 yards per game. Facing an Atlanta secondary that has allowed the third-most PPR points to opposing wideouts makes him a viable flex option in deeper 3WR formats.
Dec 27, 2024 6:07 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus caught five of his eight targets for 70 yards and two scores during their victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Zaccheaus did most of his damage in the fourth quarter. He caught a four yard TD pass from Jayden Daniels in the opening minutes of the quarter and would then go on to tally an impressive 49-yard TD reception a few minutes after. Zaccheaus' yards and targets paced all other Washington wideouts this afternoon. With Noah Brown (kidney) on the injured reserve, fantasy managers should continue to expect Zaccheaus to have an increased role in the Washington passing attack. He should be in a good position to keep his momentum rolling in Week 17, facing the Atlanta Falcons who have allowed the fifth-most PPR points to opposing wide receivers this season.
Dec 22, 2024 5:00 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus should be expected to continue to operate as the No.3 wideout in Week 16 but should not be started in any formats facing the Philadelphia Eagles. Last weekend, Zaccheaus brought in three of his four targets for 36 yards. He also found the end zone, but the play was eventually called back due to an offensive penalty. Zaccheaus has typically been deployed as a depth option in the passing attack but has seen an uptick in opportunities with Noah Brown (kidney) on the injured reserve. He has shown upside at times in his limited role, averaging an impressive 10.0 yards per catch this season. However, facing one of the top secondaries in the sport that has allowed the fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts makes Zaccheaus a desperation option in deep PPR formats that should be avoided.
Dec 20, 2024 7:18 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus caught three of his four targets for 36 yards during their victory over the New Orleans Saints. Zaccheaus also found the end zone on the game's opening drive, but the play was called back due to a penalty. Zaccheaus' four targets tied him for the second-highest on the team alongside Dyami Brown. However, tight end Zach Ertz (concussion) left the game in the first half with a concussion, which opened up more opportunities for Zaccheaus late in the game. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Ertz's status, as this could open up a stable role for Zaccheaus. In addition, with Noah Brown (kidney) on the IR, the No.2 spot on the depth chart is currently open. Zaccheaus will look to have another solid showing next weekend against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Dec 15, 2024 4:37 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is worth paying attention to in Week 15 as he may contend for a starting role with Noah Brown (ribs) injured. While Dyami Brown is the likely candidate, Zaccheaus should have the edge over rookie Luke McCaffrey for the No.3 spot on the offense. When Noah Brown left Week 13's game early with an injury, Dyami Brown saw the greatest uptick in snaps, with Zaccheaus following closely behind him. While Dyami Brown has run more routes than Zaccheaus this season, the latter has seen more targets in a small sample size (2.9 targets per game compared to Brown's 2.1), which also suggests Zaccheaus could find a potential role in this offense that is conducive to deeper formats. For now, Zaccheaus is worth following closely in deeper 3WR formats, as he could emerge as the new option in the slot for Jayden Daniels.
Dec 13, 2024 5:44 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus has been quiet in his first season with the team. After a few productive outings while with the Atlanta Falcons, the 27-year-old has barely been involved in 2024-25, catching only 23 passes (34 targets) for 242 yards. In all fairness, Jayden Daniels is capable of making big gains using his legs. Terry McLaurin, Brian Robinson Jr., and Austin Ekeler also command a certain amount of attention whenever they step on the field. As a result, Zaccheaus doesn't have a place in fantasy lineups for Week 12 versus the Dallas Cowboys. That's not expected to change anytime soon unless someone goes down with an injury.
Nov 24, 2024 12:48 AM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus led all Washington pass catchers with 85 yards on Sunday afternoon in their victory over the Arizona Cardinals. Zaccheaus caught all six of his targets, which were only second to Terry McLaurin (10 targets). This was a nice breakout performance for the 27-year-old, as he has caught just one pass through the first three weeks of action. Last week, he did not even see a target, and ran just four routes. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Zacchaeus's performance as he outperformed Noah Brown (26 yards) and rookie Luke McCaffrey (17 yards), who have typically been deployed as the No.2 and No.3 wideouts, respectively. Zaccheaus should remain on your waiver wire for now in standard leagues, but could be worth stashing in deeper 14+ team leagues.
Sep 29, 2024 7:32 PM EST
Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is listed as a starter alongside Terry McLaurin and Luke McCaffrey to begin the 2024 campaign. This is somewhat of a surprise, but he has been gaining ground on the depth chart following the departure of Jahan Dotson, who was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles. Head coach Dan Quinn was a part of the Atlanta Falcons staff that brought Zaccheaus in as an undrafted free agent in 2019, so he has familiarity with the culture Quinn is trying to establish. Although the 27-year-old wideout has flashed at times throughout his career, his overall numbers of 104 receptions for 1,492 yards and 10 touchdowns in 72 career games aren't all that impressive. Either way, he should have his best opportunity to produce in 2024, though his upside is likely limited with rookie Jayden Daniels starting at quarterback.
