James Washington Released By Falcons

Sunday, August 18, 6:18 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver James Washington has been released by the organization on Sunday. It looks like Washington was the odd man out as the Falcons needed to cut someone to add safety Justin Simmons to the roster. At this point, Washington is nothing more than depth on any NFL roster. His best season came in 2019 with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Washington recorded 44 receptions, 735 receiving yards and three touchdowns during that season. Since then, Washington has regressed appears to be nothing more than a back-end depth option. He could land elsewhere before the season begins, but Washington is unlikely to make a big impact anywhere.

Dante Pettis News

Dante Pettis Signs with Bills

Thursday, July 30, 7:17 PM

Veteran wide receiver Dante Pettis has been signed by the Buffalo Bills, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Across eight games with the New Orleans Saints in 2025, Pettis recorded nine catches for 127 yards on 11 targets. The 30-year-old has played in 66 NFL games across seven seasons, but his contributions have mostly come on special teams. Pettis has not recorded more than 19 catches or 245 receiving yards in a season since his rookie year in 2018. While the Bills are searching for reliable receiver talent behind DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir, Pettis is unlikely to play a significant role as a pass-catcher in Buffalo. Fantasy managers in both redraft and dynasty leagues should avoid Pettis.
