After seeming to finally gain some traction as Washington’s No. 2 WR over the course of the past few weeks at training camp, the former 2022 16th overall pick has been shipped to Philly along with a 5th-round pick next year in exchange for a 3rd rounder and two seventh rounders in the 2025 draft. Unfortunately for Dotson and his managers, the move to the Eagles cuts short what was shaping up to be a season with bounce-back potential and leaves him buried on the depth chart behind the likes of A.J. Brown, Devonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert. Dotson could reasonably find his way onto the field in 3-WR sets with just Parris Campbell and John Ross contending for the No. 3 spot in the offense, but it’s unlikely that he earns any kind of full time role unless either Brown or Smith would be injured. As for the Commanders, Dotson’s departure removes one obstacle from the path to fantasy relevance for WR Dyami Brown, who flashed a connection with rookie QB Jayden Daniels in limited action this preseason. More important, though, are the positive consequences of Dotson’s exit from the target distribution for Terry McLaurin. Without a clear No. 2 option in the passing game, McLaurin is primed to spearhead what will likely be a very top-heavy target distribution in Washington. TEs Zach Ertz and Ben Sinnott also stand to benefit in the target share department, as well.
