Who Should I Start? Olamide Zaccheaus or Greg Dortch

Friday, September 12, 11:19 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus made an immediate impact in his debut under head coach Ben Johnson. He caught four of seven targets for 42 yards in the Week 1 loss to Minnesota, operating as Chicago's clear WR3. Zaccheaus played 44% of the snaps and ran a route on 59% of dropbacks, both behind only Rome Odunze and D.J. Moore. Notably, he was on the field for 87% of the snaps in one-tight end sets, cementing his defined role in the offense. Week 2 brings an appealing matchup with the Lions, who allowed the most receiving yards to wideouts in 2024. Former Bear receiver Keenan Allen shredded Detroit twice last season, averaging 23.2 half-PPR points per game against them. While Zaccheaus has a chance to stay involved, his role still caps his upside. He's a deep-league flex consideration but should remain out of lineups in most fantasy formats.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch (collarbone) is listed as questionable to play in Week 5 on Sunday against the winless Tennessee Titans. Dortch was limited in practice all week and could be a true game-time decision for Sunday's contest in the desert. The 27-year-old wideout had his best game of the season in last Thursday night's loss to the Seattle Seahawks, catching four of his five targets for 35 yards and no touchdowns. He carried the ball one time for a pickup of four yards. Dortch is more of a gadget player for the Cardinals than a true receiver that should be taken seriously in fantasy. At best, he's a bench stash in much deeper leagues. He will most likely have a smaller role this weekend against Tennessee with Zay Jones being cleared from his concussion. Dortch has only eight catches on nine targets for 47 yards and no scores through four weeks in 2025.
