Washington Commanders
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Zaccheaus will be on his third team in as many seasons in 2024 after catching 10 passes in 17 games for the Eagles last year and ultimately failing to unseat Quez Watkins from the No. 3 role. The 27-year-old might have another chance to compete for No. 3 status in Washington, where the Commanders otherwise appear to have Luke McCaffrey and Dyami Brown competing for regular roles behind top receiver Terry McLaurin. It was only two years ago that Zaccheaus caught 40 passes for 533 yards as a 13-game starter for Atlanta, but he probably profiles best as a fourth or fifth receiver. Read Past Outlooks

WRWashington Commanders
October 8, 2024
Zaccheaus caught one of three targets for 10 yards in a 34-13 win over the Browns on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Zaccheaus actually got more playing time than he had the week before when he was targeted on six of his nine routes and caught all six passes for 85 yards. With fellow wideout Noah Brown (groin) inactive, Zaccheaus' snap share jumped from 25 percent in Week 4 to 51 percent in Week 5. With or without Brown in the lineup, none of Washington's wideouts besides Terry McLaurin will be a good bet to draw more than three or four targets Week 6 at Baltimore.

2019
Zaccheaus' numbers have improved in each of his four years in the NFL, resulting in a trio of touchdowns and career highs in targets (61), receptions (40) and receiving yards (533) last season. Each of those marks ranked second on the Falcons behind Drake London, but Zacchaeus departed for the Eagles in free agency this offseason. The move means Zaccheaus will be competing with Quez Watkins for the third receiver job, a role worth less in Philadelphia than most places due to the presence of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Watkins caught just 33 passes as the team's third wideout in 2022, while since departed fourth option Zach Pascal had just 15 catches.
With Calvin Ridley away from the team in 2021, Zaccheaus saw the best breakout opportunity of his career, but aside from a two-touchdown performance Week 9, he failed to make a lasting impression. After the NFL handed down a season-long suspension for Ridley and Russell Gage left in free agency this offseason, Zaccheaus was slated to be the No. 1 wideout before Atlanta made numerous moves to address its pass-catching corps. First-round pick Drake London and trade acquisition Bryan Edwards could man the top-2 wideout spots for the team to begin the year, while Zaccheaus may find himself in competition with Auden Tate to be the main slot man. However, even if Zaccheaus wins the role, it remains to be seen how many mouths a Marcus Mariota-led offense can feed.
A 2019 undrafted free agent, Zaccheaus has demonstrated some big-play potential for the Falcons, with three catches of 40-plus yards among his 23 career receptions. He's averaged 10.5 yards per target through two seasons, but he's also needed injuries to one of two star wideouts to make an impact. Before a toe injury sidelined him for the final five games of 2020, Zaccheaus' two biggest efforts - 8-86-0 in Week 4 and 4-103-1 in Week 9 - came when Jones missed most of the former and when Ridley was inactive for the latter. Even if Atlanta ends up acquiescing to Jones' trade request, Zaccheaus will be firmly behind Ridley, Russell Gage and stud rookie tight end Kyle Pitts in the pecking order for targets.
Zaccheaus is slotted into Atlanta's No. 4 wide receiver role to begin the season, after overcoming Christian Blake and 2016 No. 23 overall pick Laquon Treadwell to secure the gig. Zaccheaus lit up the stat sheet late in his collegiate career at Virginia, and he now plays for an NFL offense that is fresh off a No. 1 ranking in pass attempts (684). The issue is, of course, that with Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley and Russell Gage already firmly planted in prominent roles on the depth chart, Zaccheaus remains a long shot to provide sustainable fantasy utility in 2020. Furthermore, down the stretch of 2019 it was Blake and Justin Hardy who split the No. 4 role after Mohamed Sanu's midseason trade to New England, while Zaccheaus was less involved offensively.
Zaccheaus was an absolute production monster over the latter half of his career at Virginia, piecing together back-to-back seasons of 1,000 offensive yards in 2017 and 2018, while scoring six-plus touchdowns over each of his final three seasons with the Cavaliers. He went unselected in April's draft, but with a number of acrobatic catches in the preseason made enough of an impression with the Falcons coaching staff to secure a spot on the 53-man roster. During his rookie campaign Zaccheaus will serve as Atlanta's No. 5 or 6 wide receiver, while taking on a prominent special teams role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to compete for No. 3 role
WRPhiladelphia Eagles
April 19, 2023
Zaccheaus, who agreed to a contract with the Eagles on Wednesday, should have a chance to secure Philadelphia's No. 3 receiver role, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Zaccheaus carved out a progressively bigger role in Atlanta over his first four seasons after latching on with the organization as an undrafted free agent out of Virginia in 2019, topping out at 40 receptions for 533 yards and three touchdowns across 17 games in 2022. In Philadelphia, the 25-year-old could have a chance to unseat current third receiver Quez Watkins, who saw a downturn in production last season compared to 2021.
