Brown was sneakily productive as a Texan last season, notching games of 82, 153, and 172 yards while only appearing in ten matchups. On a thin wide receiver depth chart, he makes for an interesting late-round stab, particularly in best ball leagues as a stacking partner for Jayden Daniels.

A rare in-division trade: Washington is sending former first-round pick Jahan Dotson and a fifth-round pick to the Eagles in exchange for a 2025 third-round pick and two seventh-round picks.

On paper, Dotson is now downgraded from a team's WR2 to a WR3, though we could see a similar amount of spike weeks in the Eagles passing attack.

One of McCaffrey or Brown should now have a shot at lining up in 2WR sets, which makes them interesting late-round dart throws in drafts. Zach Ertz and Ben Sinnott also both get slight boosts, as they may be more involved in the receiving game, while rookie Johnny Wilson's bid for a WR3 designation definitely seems out the window.

The Commanders removed WR Terry McLaurin from the injury report. He's good to go Sunday vs. the Cardinals.

Fantastic news, as this matchup is amazing for fantasy purposes. With a full practice on Friday, there should be no reason to keep McLaurin out of Week 1 fantasy lineups. His season-long outlook as a WR2 remains intact.

A good sign for the Commanders: WR Terry McLaurin (toe) was a full participant in practice today.

This is fantastic news, as a full Thursday participation hints that there will be a full workload for McLauren in Week 1. Sam Howell is a very intriguing streamer once more, as McLauren himself should be considered a fantasy WR2.

Sources in Washington are optimistic about Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (toe). He’s responded well to work on the field so far, with a few days of practice remaining before the sold-out home opener against Arizona.

This is a tough situation for fantasy managers who likely just drafted McLaurin last weekend. It's even worse for managers who took a running back-heavy approach who may even be relying on him as their team's WR1. Expectations should be limited right out of the gate, and McLaurin may end up on benches for teams with many other WRs on their team. His season-long outlook should remain very strong.

Standig remarks that Carson Wentz has displayed more chemistry with Jahan Dotson than any other wide receiver in camp.

This isn't to say that Terry McLaurin isn't the unquestioned number one on this team, but it's a good sign that the 16th-overall pick would seem to be the for sure second option in the Washington passing game. Dotson also seems to be the favorite to be the primary punt returner, if you're looking for a tiebreaker and another option late in drafts.

WFT WR Curtis Samuel (groin) will not play week 10, while WR Dyami Brown (knee) is questionable.

Samuel's season feels like a total 'L,' while Brown's anticipated return is good for him rest of season and as a dynasty target in 2022.

Rivera is hopeful that after the bye, Washington may be able to activate tight end Logan Thomas off injured reserve (hamstring) and return a number of starters, including right guard Brandon Scherff (knee), wide receiver Dyami Brown (knee), right tackle Sam Cosmi (ankle), cornerback William Jackson III (knee) and receiver Curtis Samuel.

Seals-Jones had just a 2-12-0 line last week after three solid games in a row with Thomas on IR. Now could be the time to take a shot on Thomas if he's on your wire and you're in need of TE help. Samuel has been dealing with a groin injury since spring, the story pointed out and could also be a stash option with Washington on a bye this week.
