Greg Dortch Signs One-Year Deal With Lions

Wednesday, March 18, 1:35 PM

Former Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Detroit Lions on Wednesday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. It's a reunion with new Lions offensive coordinator Drew Petzing, who coached Dortch the last three years in Arizona. In that time, the 27-year-old pass-catcher caught 90 of his 124 targets for 828 yards and eight touchdowns in 45 games (11 starts). The former undrafted free agent out of Wake Forest was a regular contributor in Arizona's offense, but he was never a priority option for fantasy football managers at any time. The speedy wideout will add depth to Detroit's pass-catching corps and will also be an asset on special teams, as he had 31 kick returns for 811 yards and 16 punt returns for 185 yards in 12 games in 2025. At best, Dortch will be the Lions' WR4 behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Isaac TeSlaa to begin next season.

Jahan Dotson News

Jahan Dotson to be Atlanta's WR2 in 2026?

Friday, July 3, 9:31 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson hasn't caught 50 passes in an NFL season, hasn't reached 20 receptions in either of the last two years, and has averaged just 380 receiving yards per season in his four years in the NFL with the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles after Washington took him 16th overall in the 2022 draft out of Penn State. He joined the Falcons this offseason on a two-year, $15 million deal, and while not much is expected of him, the 26-year-old pass-catcher has an opportunity in his new digs to become the WR2 behind Drake London. London is the only receiver on the roster who had more than seven catches in Atlanta in 2025. Dotson's rookie year in 2022 was his best, when he caught 35 of 61 targets for 523 yards and seven touchdowns in D.C. He's seen 31.5% of his career targets from the slot, but he may be asked to play more outside in Atlanta in new head coach Kevin Stefanski's offensive scheme. The speedy 5-foot-11, 184-pounder should be viewed as a deep sleeper in 2026 fantasy drafts, especially with the Falcons' quarterback situation unsettled going into training camp this summer.
