Olamide Zaccheaus Signing With the Falcons

Monday, March 9, 8:49 AM

Free-agent veteran wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is signing an undisclosed deal with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Zaccheaus went undrafted out of Virginia before latching on with the Falcons in 2019. The 28-year-old spent the first four years of his NFL career in Atlanta, catching 94 passes for 1,328 yards and eight touchdowns on 151 targets in 55 games (23 starts). Zaccheaus will now return to the Falcons after catching 39 of his 65 targets for 313 yards and two touchdowns in 16 regular-season games (five starts) in 2025 in his lone season with the Chicago Bears. With Darnell Mooney not expected to return, Zaccheaus could have the opportunity to serve as the team's No. 2 wideout behind Drake London, depending on what other additions the team makes at the position in free agency and the draft. At best, though, Zaccheaus will most likely be a low-upside WR4/flex in deeper fantasy football leagues in his return to Atlanta.

Jaylin Lane News

Jaylin Lane Has Value in Deep Leagues Going into his Sophomore Season

Wednesday, February 25, 10:36 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane ended his rookie season on Injured Reserve due to an ankle injury, but flashed promise at times during the 2025 season. The young receiver out of Virginia Tech played behind veteran wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr. for the majority of his debut season, tallying just 225 yards on 16 catches. However, Deebo is set to hit free agency in March, which opens the door for Lane to compete for the team's second option at wide receiver. Lane was primarily an intermediate-to-deep threat who averaged 14.7 air yards per target over his 15 games played, and is an intriguing option for deep-league fantasy managers looking for volatility in the late rounds. For dynasty managers, Lane remains a good stash player with upside on a promising offense.
