Olamide Zaccheaus - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Catches three passes for 19 yards Zaccheaus caught each of his three targets for 19 yards in a 23-20 win at Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Impact Zaccheaus finished second among Washington's wide receivers in snap share (68 percent), slightly ahead of Dyami Brown, who took 58 percent of snaps and caught each of his five targets for 89 yards and a touchdown. Zaccheaus out-produced Brown in each of the final three games of the regular season, catching 15 of 22 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns during that stretch, so both figure to be involved in the offense during Washington's next playoff game Saturday at Detroit.

Two grabs in season finale Zaccheaus caught two of five targets for 51 yards in Sundays 23-19 win over the Cowboys.

Impact Zaccheaus cooled off quite a bit in Week 18 after a string of strong performances in recent weeks. The wideouts two catches counted for his lowest reception total since Week 12. Zaccheaus became an important part of the Commanders' passing attack to close the season, finishing the year with 45 receptions for 506 yards and three touchdowns. With that said, the 27-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason after only one season with Washington. His growing chemistry with quarterback Jayden Daniels could lead the Commanders to offering him another contract this offseason. If not, Zaccheaus will hit the market in 2025 in search of a new landing spot.

Continues late-season surge Zaccheaus caught eight of nine targets for 85 receiving yards and a touchdown while adding eight rushing yards on his lone attempt in Sunday's overtime win over Atlanta.

Impact Zaccheaus followed up last week's impressive two-score showing with another strong fantasy performance in Week 17. The former Falcon set a new career-high in receiving yards (540) against his old club following Sunday's output. Zaccheaus' recent string of strong play has put the receiver on the map in most formats for a Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday.

Two TDs in comeback win Zaccheaus caught five of eight targets for 70 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 36-33 win over the Eagles.

Impact The veteran wideout came into the day with zero TDs on the season, but Zaccheaus was a huge part of a dramatic comeback victory, catching scores of four and 49 yards from Jayden Daniels in the fourth quarter, two of five passing TDs on the day for the rookie QB. Dyami Brown also left Sunday's game late with a hamstring injury, which could put Zaccheaus in line for a bigger role in Week 17 against the Falcons, and potentially a second straight revenge game -- he spent 2023 with Philly after his first four NFL campaign came with Atlanta.

Three receptions in win Zaccheaus caught three of four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints.

Impact Zaccheaus played just under 50 percent of Washington's 78 offensive snaps Sunday while operating as the Commanders' No. 3 wide receiver behind Terry McLaurin and Dyami Brown. The veteran wideout caught three passes for the second-straight week, but he was unable to turn those touches into significant fantasy production. Zaccheaus should continue to be ignored for fantasy fantasy purposes as the season approaches its conclusion. The Commanders host the Eagles in Week 16.

Catches three passes Zaccheaus caught each of his three targets for 14 yards in a 42-19 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact Zaccheaus played 35 percent of snaps on offense and didn't get a noticeable boost in playing time after Noah Brown left with a rib injury. The Commanders instead turned to Dyami Brown for a regular spot on the perimeter, with Zaccheaus and Luke McCaffrey staying in their familiar depth roles. The Commanders now have a Week 14 bye, followed by a Week 15 road game at New Orleans.

DECEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One grab in loss Zaccheaus caught his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Cowboys.

Impact Zaccheaus played just 34 percent of Washington's offensive snaps Sunday and continued his streak of limited playing time in the Commanders' offense. The veteran has played over 50 percent of snaps just once this season back in Week 5. Zaccheaus has recorded just one catch in each of the past three contests, as the 27-year-old is not a major part of Washington's offensive scheme. The sixth-year wideout should be ignored for fantasy purposes in a Week 13 matchup against New England.

NOVEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Catches one pass Zaccheaus caught one of two targets for 10 yards in a 26-18 loss at Philadelphia on Thursday.

Impact Zaccheaus played 42 percent of snaps on offense, third most among Washington wide receivers on a night when five of them logged at least 30 percent share. Zaccheaus has three of fewer targets in four straight games since drawing 21 targets over a four-game span Weeks 4-7. He'll continue in his depth role Week 12 against Dallas, remaining far off the radar in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues.

NOVEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One catch against Pittsburgh Zaccheaus caught one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Zaccheaus played just 16 of the Commanders' 64 offensive snaps in the contest, his lowest snap total since Week 4. The veteran wideout has seen at least a 50 percent snap share in just one game this season, as his limited role has contributed to his inconsistent production. Through 10 weeks, Zaccheaus has totaled 22 catches for 232 scoreless yards on 32 targets. The 27-year-old should remain off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Eagles.

Ices game with 42-yard catch Zaccheaus caught both of his targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Giants.

Impact Zaccheaus was fourth among the team's wide receivers in snap share (38 percent) and fifth in route share (23 percent), but he made one of the biggest plays of the game, with a 42-yard gain right at the two-minute warning helping Washington run out the clock on a five-point victory. Although he's been targeted on 27 percent of his routes this season, Zaccheaus figures to remain in a backup/rotational role Week 10 against Pittsburgh.

NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to face Big Blue Zaccheaus (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Zaccheaus was a full participant Friday after logging limited practices the previous two days. He'll fill his usual role within a rotation-heavy Washington WR group in which Terry McLaurin is the only sure thing for a full-time role and steady targets each week.

NOVEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Reps capped in Thursday's practice Zaccheaus (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Thursday.

Impact Zaccheaus' practice reps were capped for the second day in a row, and he'll likely need to advance to full participation Friday to avoid taking a designation into Sunday's game against the Giants. If available for the Week 9 contest, Zaccheaus will likely represent a secondary option in the Washington passing game behind wideouts Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown and tight end Zach Ertz. Zaccheaus has yet to find the end zone in eight appearances this season and has been held under 30 receiving yards in all but one of those outings.

OCTOBER 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with hamstring injury Zaccheaus (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact This is his first time listed on the injury report this season, with Zaccheaus having played 25-51 percent of snaps on offense in all but one game. He ran 18 routes in this past Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears without drawing single target, following back-to-back games with exactly six targets and four catches. An absence for Sunday's game at the Giants would leave more snaps/routes for some combination of Noah Brown, Luke McCaffrey and Dyami Brown.

OCTOBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

No targets on 18 routes Zaccheaus finished without a target despite running 18 routes in Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears.

Impact His route share (45 percent) and snap share (35 percent) weren't far off from season-long norms, but Zaccheaus uncharacteristically finished without a target. His target rate for the season is still at a lofty 26 percent, just without the consistent playing time for it to really matter outside of the deepest fantasy leagues. Zaccheaus is this unlikely to put up a big stat line Week 9 at the Giants.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Four receptions Zaccheaus recorded four receptions on six targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers.

Impact Zaccheaus saw six targets for the second consecutive game to match his season high, though his fantasy intrigue remains muted as he continues to work in short areas of the field. While he's translated his 12 targets combined across the last two games into eight receptions, he's turned that into only 52 yards. In seven total matchups this season, Zaccheaus has topped 30 yards just once.

OCTOBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Four receptions Zaccheaus recorded four receptions on six targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers.

OCTOBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Targeted six times Zaccheaus caught four of six targets for 27 yards in a 30-23 loss at Baltimore on Sunday.

Impact Zaccheaus split slot work with Luke McCaffrey, handling 38 percent snap share and 42 route share. There's not much likelihood of significant workload growth with Terry McLaurin locked in as the No. 1 receiver and Noah Brown playing well as the No. 2, but Zaccheaus has shockingly busy when he does get on the field, drawing targets on a team-high 31 percent of routes (albeit with a lot of those being screen passes). In any case, there's always risk of the volume not being there when the snap counts are so low, and Zaccheaus had just one catch for 10 yards in the previous game, Week 5 against Cleveland. Expectations should remain modest for Week 7, even in a favorable matchup against the 1-5 Panthers.
