Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Just one catch in TNF victory
Dotson caught one pass on three targets for 11 yards during the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Dotson's three targets from Michael Penix were actually second-most on the Falcons behind Drake London (10), with Dotson finishing tied for the third-most receiving yards on the team. He's played over 60 percent of offensive snaps in each of the first three games of the regular season but has a 4-41-0 receiving line (on 11 targets) to show for it. That said, Dotson's scoring floor could steadily increase as the season progresses and Penix gets more reps under his belt. The Falcons will stay on the road for a Week 4 NFC South tilt against the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Two catches in blowout loss
Dotson caught two of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Panthers.
Dotson was on the field for 52 of the team's 69 offensive snaps, but it didn't really matter much as the Falcons put together another putrid offensive performance. The wide receiver will look to be more productive with Michael Penix (knee) making his return to action Thursday night against the Packers.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Catches one pass in Week 1
Dotson caught one of three targets for 19 yards in Atlanta's 20-13 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Dotson acted as the clear WR2 behind Drake London, out-snapping rookie Zachariah Branch 38 to 18. Olamide Zaccheaus also played 18 offensive snaps. Dotson ran 19 routes to Zaccheaus' nine and Branch's six. None of these three figure to have any consistent fantasy viability as long as all three of London, Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson are healthy.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Three receptions in preseason finale
Dotson caught all three of his targets for 27 yards in Friday's 17-12 preseason win over the Dolphins.
Dotson accounted for three of Tua Tagovailoa's seven completions while Atlanta's starters were in the game, with three going to TE Kyle Pitts and one going to RB Brian Robinson. Offensive stars Bijan Robinson and Drake London sat out the preseason finale, but Dotson's involvement Friday suggests the 2022 first-round pick of the Commanders is positioned as the Falcons' No. 2 wideout behind London heading into the regular season.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Working as starter
Dotson is playing with Atlanta's first-team offense at training camp, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Dotson has featured with the starters consistently, working alongside Drake London while Olamide Zaccheaus and Zachariah Branch rotate in. In the process, McFadden notes that Dotson had a nice gain on a crossing route early in the full-team period of Thursday's practice. The 16th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft has recorded 1,519 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns through four NFL regular seasons split between Washington and Philadelphia, with seven of those scores coming in Dotson's rookie campaign.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Poised to compete for starting role
Dotson is set to compete for slotting in a "wide open" Atlanta wideout depth chart behind Drake London, Bobby Kownack of NFL.com reports.
Dotson had some solid stretches early in his career with Washington, but his production dropped dramatically after he was traded to the Eagles ahead of the 2024 season. Of course, Philadelphia had the stud wideout duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith hogging most of Jalen Hurts' targets and consequently impeding Dotson's opportunities. Things are a bit different for the Penn State product after he signed with Atlanta in early March -- though London (undisclosed) is the team's clear alpha at wideout, the No. 2 slot in the WR pecking order is probably going to come down to whoever wins the competition between Dotson, Olamide Zaccheaus and third-round rookie Zachariah Branch. With that said, the Falcons will also feature TE Kyle Pitts and RB Bijan Robinson as key components of their air game, so even if Dotson emerges with a starting role, he figures to be behind multiple players in terms of distribution of targets.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Signing with Falcons
Dotson and the Falcons have reached agreement on a two-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Schefter reports it as a two-year, $15 million deal, including $10 million guaranteed at signing. The contract suggests Dotson will compete for a starting job, after he spent two seasons in Philadelphia as a lightly targeted No. 3 WR (37 catches in 34 regular-season games) behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. A 2022 first-round pick, Dotson will turn 26 in March and now figures to compete with fellow free-agent signing Olamide Zaccheaus for playing time alongside No. 1 receiver Drake London.

Eagles' Jahan Dotson: Finishes season with 18 catches
Dotson finished his second season with the Eagles with a total of 18 receptions for 262 yards and one touchdown in 17 regular-season games.
Dotson's numbers were very similar to last year's 19 catches for 216 yards and zero scores, a big step down from his average of 42 catches for 520.5 yards and 5.5 touchdowns in his first two years in the league with Washington. If he remains stuck behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith in Philadelphia again next season, expect similar production.

Eagles' Jahan Dotson: Zero catches against Bills
Dotson finished with zero catches on one target in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Bills.
Dotson has now been held without a catch on six different occasions this season and has caught exactly one pass seven times. If the Eagles rest their starters in next week's regular-season finale against the Commanders, he could play a larger role, but with the second seed still a possibility with a win and a Bears loss, that may not be the plan.
