Olamide Zaccheaus News
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.

Malik Washington News
Tuesday, July 14, 5:25 AM
When the Miami Dolphins reconvene for training camp at the end of the month, they will do so with one of the league's most unproven wide receiver rooms, giving third-year veteran Malik Washington a chance to earn an important starting role. Washington caught 46 passes for the Dolphins in 2025, which trails only De'Von Achane among the handful of players still with the team, while free agent acquisitions Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell, and Terrace Marshall Jr. combined for only 24 receptions last season. Miami spent three of its 13 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft on receivers, but with the headliner of that group, Chris Bell, still recovering from the torn ACL he suffered in his final game with Louisville, some of Washington's stiffest competition for a spot atop the depth chart could come from third-rounder Caleb Douglas and fifth-rounder Kevin Coleman Jr. With a new coaching staff and a new quarterback in Malik Willis, the Dolphins will be rebuilding their offense from scratch. If Washington can earn his way into a featured role, he's a smart bet to outperform his current ADP of WR70, though how much of a difference that will actually mean for fantasy is still up for debate, as Miami projects to have one of the lowest-scoring offenses in the league.
