Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or Romeo Doubs

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).

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (wrist) exited during the fourth quarter of Saturday's Week 16 contest against the Chicago Bears. He is officially listed as questionable to return. Doubs suffered the injury while attempting to field Chicago's onside kick attempt. The ball bounced off the 25-year-old receiver and was recovered by the Bears, setting up a game-tying drive to force overtime. As Saturday's pivotal divisional battle enters overtime, the Packers are without Doubs, who was having a great game aside from the special teams miscue. On offense, he had caught five of his six targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. With Doubs sidelined, Dontayvion Wicks and Matthew Golden should earn more snaps behind Christian Watson and Jayden Reed.
