Eagles Decline Fifth-Year Option On Jahan Dotson

Wednesday, April 23, 10:38 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles declined the fifth-year option on wide receiver Jahan Dotson on Wednesday, a source told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. It means that the former 16th overall pick of the Washington Commanders in 2022 out of Penn State will head into a contract year in 2025. The 25-year-old pass-catcher spent the first two years of his career with Washington before joining the division-rival Eagles in 2024 and winning a Super Bowl with them. He was much more productive in his first two years in D.C., as he caught just 19 of 33 targets for 216 yards and no touchdowns with Philly in 17 regular-season games (six starts). The Eagles just had two many other weapons on offense for Dotson to really make a mark production-wise as the No. 4 aerial target behind wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith and tight end Dallas Goedert. Barring an injury to Brown or Smith in 2025, Dotson will be off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

Jalen Royals Active for Week 3 Against Giants

Sunday, September 21, 7:44 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Jalen Royals (knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 3 contest against the New York Giants. The rookie had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. He'll make his pro debut on Sunday night after missing the first two games of the season. Royals could provide a boost to a wide receiver room that is currently without Rashee Rice (suspension) and Xavier Worthy (shoulder). However, the fourth-round pick will likely still find himself behind established receivers like Marquise Brown, Tyquan Thornton, and JuJu Smith-Schuster.
