2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
Jahan Dotson's rookie season showed promise, as he managed to score seven touchdowns on just 35 receptions, making him a popular late-round target for fantasy managers heading into his second professional season in 2023. However, things quickly unraveled for Dotson, as he scored just one touchdown in his first seven games while failing to reach 50 receiving yards in any contest. By the time he had his breakout game against the Eagles in Week 8, with eight catches for 108 yards and a touchdown, many managers had already benched or dropped him, thus missing out on the benefits of his big performance.

Following that game, Dotson scored only two more touchdowns in his final nine games and exceeded 50 yards just twice. His Week 8 game against Philadelphia was the only time he surpassed 70 receiving yards in a game.

Heading into his third season, some fantasy managers are again considering Dotson as a late-round pick, seeing his current ADP as offering high upside. However, the reality is that the Washington offense may not be conducive to a breakout for Dotson. Terry McLaurin remains the clear-cut WR1, and the 2024 Commanders are likely to be significantly less pass-heavy than they were in 2023. The team attempted 636 passes in 2023, the most in the NFL, but this trend is expected to change.

Under new offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, who historically has had more balanced offenses, especially with a rookie quarterback like Jayden Daniels, the Commanders are unlikely to replicate their high pass attempt volume from last year. Kingsbury's previous offenses in Arizona ranked 18th, 15th, and 18th in pass attempts before a fourth-place finish in 2022.

Given these factors, it's unlikely that Dotson will emerge as a true difference-maker in the Washington offense. If any pass-catcher is going to stand out, it's almost certainly going to be McLaurin rather than ancillary pieces like Dotson, who failed to break out even when his team led the league in pass attempts.

News From The Past 90 Days
Injury A.J. Brown downgraded to Out for Week 2
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Sep 15, 12:00 pm

Philadelphia Eagles
#Eagles WR A.J. Brown has been downgraded to out with a hamstring injury for Monday night. (Ian Rapoport on X)

FFToday's Take: The only good thing about this news is that we get it before the early games are played. DeVonta Smith gets a nice boost as does TE Dallas Goedert. Jahan Dotson isn't a recommended option.


Injury A.J. Brown listed as Questionable for Monday night
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Sep 14, 4:09 pm

Philadelphia Eagles
#Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) did not practice today and is officially questionable for Monday night's game against the #Texans. (Tom Pelissero on X)

FFToday's Take: Brown popped up on Friday's injury report with a hamstring issue. We don't like late-week additions to the injury report, especially for players playing Monday night. It's difficult to envision backups Jahan Dotson or Johnny Wilson having a significant fantasy impact if Brown misses.


Trade: Eagles land Commanders' WR Jahan Dotson
Washington gets draft pick compensation
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Aug 22, 11:30 am

Philadelphia Eagles
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, per sources. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: The Eagles have been looking to solidify their third receiver position for a few years now. Perhaps Dotson can fill that void. He was the 16th pick back in 2022 but has yet to make a big impact in the league and wasn't standing out in training camp with the Commanders this pre-season. Given the star-power the Eagles have at wide receiver, Dotson will need an injury to A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith to have any significant fantasy relevance.
