Dyami Brown Losing Fantasy Value After Fumble and Quarterback Downgrade

Saturday, September 26, 8:28 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown briefly flashed fantasy upside with six targets in the passing game last week, but all signs point to the 26-year-old remaining off the fantasy radar going forward. Outside of the six-target performance, Brown has delivered an underwhelming season. He was held without a catch in Week 1, he lost a fumble last week, and he's heading for a quarterback downgrade as Marcus Mariota steps in for the injured Jayden Daniels (elbow). Plus, he's somewhere around third or fourth on the depth chart, competing for snaps with Antonio Williams as the two operate behind Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs. A Mariota-led offense doesn't have the ability to support more than two fantasy-relevant receivers, so McLaurin and Diggs are the only players worth starting right now. Brown can be left on waivers in most leagues.

Xavier Legette News

Xavier Legette Placed on Injured Reserve

Saturday, October 3, 12:19 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (knee) has been placed on Injured Reserve, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Legette has been sidelined since Week 2 by a knee injury and is now set to miss at least the next four weeks. Before getting injured, the 25-year-old recorded two catches for 64 yards on six targets. Legette's role in the Panthers' offense had been diminished by the emergence of Carolina wideout Jalen Coker (quad), who has established himself as the team's clear WR2 alongside star wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan. Still, the knee injury is an unwelcome setback for Legette, who has struggled to get his career off the ground since being selected by Carolina in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. With Legette sidelined, Panthers wideouts Brycen Tremayne, David Moore, and John Metchie III could all see a few more chances to contribute.
