Commanders Release Michael Gallup

Monday, August 25, 6:18 PM

The Washington Commanders released wide receiver Michael Gallup on Monday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Gallup was unable to make Washington's 53-man roster heading into the regular season in his comeback bid after retiring in 2024 shortly after signing with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old veteran could return to the Commanders on their practice squad, but if he signs with another team for the regular season, he will merely be competing for a spot on the active game-day roster and won't be on the fantasy radar at all. The former third-rounder (81st overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Colorado State caught 34 of 57 targets for 418 yards and only two touchdowns in 17 games (13 starts) in 2023 in his final year in Dallas. Gallup's best season came in Year 2, when he put up a 66-1,107-6 line on 113 targets in 14 games (12 starts).

DK Metcalf A Borderline Must-Start Against Former Team

Friday, September 12, 10:59 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf performed well in his first game in the black and gold and now gets a chance at revenge against the team that traded him earlier this year, the Seattle Seahawks. Metcalf told reporters that Sunday's contest is "just another football game", but the 27-year-old will surely be targeted early and often as the de facto top pass-catcher for quarterback Aaron Rodgers. While he wasn't on the receiving end of any of Rodgers' four touchdown tosses in Week 1, he still paced Pittsburgh in targets and receiving yards while flashing his trademark explosiveness. The Seahawks struggled to contain opposing wideouts in 2024 and just allowed 108 yards to Ricky Pearsall last week, suggesting Metcalf could be in line for another productive showing. He offers plenty of upside as a rock-solid WR2 in Week 2.
