Commanders Release Wide Receiver Van Jefferson

Sunday, August 30, 3:46 PM

The Washington Commanders have released veteran wide receiver Van Jefferson, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. He had been in camp as a depth option for the Commanders, who watched Deebo Samuel Sr. depart in free agency. His departure confirms that Luke McCaffrey, Jaylin Lane, Treylon Burks, and Dyami Brown have made the team as depth behind Terry McLaurin, Stefon Diggs, and Antonio Williams. This preseason, Jefferson caught four passes for 48 yards. The 30-year-old will now look to join his sixth team in five years. He has finished as WR88 or worse in five of his six pro seasons, so even if he does end up on a different 53-man roster, it's unlikely that he would have any sort of fantasy relevance. He can be left on waivers in all leagues.

Dyami Brown News

Dyami Brown is Quickly Losing Traction

Friday, September 18, 7:02 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown was unable to make an impact during the Week 1 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 26-year-old failed to haul in either of his two targets in the loss. He played in 53 percent of the offensive snaps, but hardly saw the ball thrown his way. The expectation is that Brown is going to be a depth player while the Commanders are healthy at wideout. Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs should be the primary wideouts, and rookie Antonio Williams made a promising NFL debut. Brown belongs on waivers until he gets a larger role in the passing game.
