    Jahan Dotson Returning In Week 10

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) was removed from the final injury report on Saturday and will make his return in Week 10 against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football. Dotson returned to practice this week for the first time since aggravating a hamstring injury on Oct. 20. The 22-year-old will play for the first time since Week 4. He was one of the biggest storylines in training camp and got his NFL career off to an excellent start with four touchdowns in his first four games. However, that was with quarterback Carson Wentz under center. Dotson will return with Taylor Heinicke under center, and he'll be competing for targets with Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel. He could be eased back into the offense, but Dotson absolutely needs to be rostered in all fantasy leagues after his hot start.

    Jahan Dotson Puts In Full Practice Friday

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) was able to practice in full on Friday. Dotson was limited in Thursday's practice, so he's clearly improving and could return on Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles for the first time since Week 4. However, the 22-year-old still isn't a lock to return and could be listed as questionable for Monday night, which will make him difficult to rely on in starting fantasy lineups. Dotson had four touchdowns in his first four NFL games, but that was also with quarterback Carson Wentz throwing him the football. Wentz and Dotson developed strong chemistry in training camp. He'll be a starter alongside Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel when he does return, but Dotson will be a risky option initially,

    Jahan Dotson Limited In Thursday's Practice

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) was officially listed as limited in Thursday's practice. It's a significant development for the 22-year-old, as it's his first practice since he aggravated his hamstring on Oct. 20. He hasn't played since Week 4, but he'll have a shot to return on Monday night against the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles. The first-rounder scored four touchdowns in his first four NFL games before his injury, but that was also with Carson Wentz under center. Dotson is totally worth stashing in most fantasy leagues, but a questionable tag this weekend would make him a highly volatile starting option with the game being on Monday night. There's a good chance the Commanders also limit his snaps if he returns given his long layoff.

    Jahan Dotson Won't Play Against Vikings

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) will not play in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings, but head coach Ron Rivera said the team hopes to get him back on the field next week. Dotson will miss his fifth straight game. The 22-year-old was nearing a return before suffering a setback with his hamstring in practice on Oct. 20. He remains worth stashing in most fantasy leagues, though, as the impressive rookie had four touchdowns in his first four NFL games before getting hurt. Fantasy managers will have to hope he can get back on the field next week and play in Week 10. With Dotson out again, Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will have higher fantasy ceilings.

    Jahan Dotson Absent Again Thursday

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is missing another practice on Thursday. Dotson hasn't played since Week 4 and is trending towards missing yet another contest in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings. The 22-year-old is worth stashing in most fantasy leagues, however, as he had 12 catches for 152 yards and four touchdowns on 22 targets in his first four NFL games before getting hurt. If he's unable to return to practice on Friday and play this Sunday, Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will continue to see more targets in the passing game from quarterback Taylor Heinicke.

    Jahan Dotson Still Not Practicing

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) remains out of practice on Wednesday. It's not a great start to the week for the 22-year-old rookie, who hasn't played since injuring his hamstring initially in Week 4. There's still a chance he could return to action this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings, but Dotson will have to get back on the practice field on either Thursday or Friday. Until that happens, Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will continue to soak up more targets from quarterback Taylor Heinicke. Dotson was looking good in his first four NFL games, securing 12 of 22 targets for 152 yards and four touchdowns, so he should be stashed in most fantasy leagues until he's able to return.

    Jahan Dotson To Miss Fourth Straight Game

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for the Week 8 game against the Indianapolis Colts. Dotson flashed with four touchdowns in his first four NFL games but has been sidelined ever since. Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel should continue to be peppered with targets, while Logan Thomas (ankle) could be a factor if he suits up, too. Fantasy managers should try to hold Dotson for one more week, as his return is coming soon.

    Jahan Dotson Expected To Miss Week 8

    Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera said that he's not expecting rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) to be available in Week 8 against the Indianapolis Colts. "He's still tight," Rivera said. Dotson has been out since Week 4 but was nearing a return last week when he aggravated his hamstring injury. The 22-year-old will most likely be inactive this weekend, and there's a possibility that he also misses more time. Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will continue to see increased looks from quarterback Taylor Heinicke in the meantime, and the Commanders might also be getting tight end Logan Thomas (calf) back after a multi-week absence. Dotson needs to remain stashed everywhere.

    Jahan Dotson Missing On Thursday

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is missing practice again on Thursday. Dotson has been sidelined since Week 4 and was getting close to returning last week before suffering a setback with his hamstring in practice. It's possible the latest setback will keep him out for another few weeks, so fantasy managers shouldn't be banking on him playing this Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts. The 22-year-old has been impressive in his first four NFL games, so he needs to be stashed in all formats for now. With Dotson likely missing another game this weekend, Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel should benefit the most from more targets from quarterback Taylor Heinicke.

    Jahan Dotson Misses Practice Wednesday

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) and tight ends Cole Turner (concussion) and Cole Holcomb (foot) were not able to practice on Wednesday. Dotson has missed the last three games and had a setback with his hamstring during practice last week, so he'll need to make a lot of progress in the next two days in order to have a shot at playing this Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts. No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin had a big game in quarterback Taylor Heinicke's first start in the absence of Carson Wentz (finger) in the Week 7 victory over the Green Bay Packers. Dotson was looking impressive early in the season before his injury, so he needs to remain stashed in all fantasy formats.

    Jahan Dotson Won't Play In Week 7

    Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is going to be sidelined for Week 7, according to head coach Ron Rivera. The 22-year-old aggravated his hamstring during practice this week. He was a long shot to play against the Green Bay Packers, so his absence shouldn't surprise fantasy managers. It sounds like the Commanders are going to continue being cautious with Dotson. There's a chance he misses more time than just this week's matchup. Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel should see an increase in usage until Dotson returns to the field.

    Jahan Dotson Unlikely To Play Sunday

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is considered "a long-shot to play" against the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Dotson re-tweaked his hamstring injury during practice and was listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. Now, it looks like he'll have to wait at least one more game before returning. The Penn State product has flashed potential this season, catching 12 passes for 152 yards and four touchdowns through four games. In his absence, Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will continue to handle the bulk of pass-catching duties for Washington.

    Jahan Dotson Questionable To Face Packers

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable to play in Week 7 against the Green Bay Packers after he appeared to aggravate his hamstring in practice on Thursday. Head coach Ron Rivera said the team will be cautious with the 22-year-old wideout, so there's a decent chance he'll miss his third straight game. And with Dyami Brown (groin) and tight end Logan Thomas (calf) already ruled out, the Commanders and quarterback Taylor Heinicke will likely be relying on Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel early and often. If Dotson misses another contest, Cam Sims and Dax Milne will be fighting for targets as the No. 3 receiver against Green Bay.

    Jahan Dotson Aggravates Hamstring At Practice

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) appeared to have aggravated his hamstring injury during practice on Thursday. He ran an over route and caught a pass from quarterback Taylor Heinicke but then tossed the ball to the ground in frustration. Dotson then slowly walked off the field with the team's head trainer. We'll have more updates on this situation, but this doesn't look good after the rookie has missed the last two games with the same injury. If Dotson is unable to play in Week 7 against the Green Bay Packers, Cam Sims and Dyami Brown will continue to compete for an elevated role behind Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel.

    Jahan Dotson Doing Individual Drills

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) is doing individual drills during the media viewing portion of practice on Wednesday. Dotson has missed the last two weeks with a hamstring injury, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to play this weekend against the Green Bay Packers. Even if he does, the 22-year-old will be working with backup quarterback Taylor Heinicke now that Carson Wentz (finger) is out four to six weeks with a fractured finger on his throwing hand. The 22-year-old has looked impressive in his first four games, catching 12 of 22 targets for 152 yards and four touchdowns, but he might not have the same chemistry with Heinicke when he returns to the field. Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel will remain the top two receivers if Dotson misses another game, with Cam Sims and Dyami Brown getting more looks behind them.

    Jahan Dotson Ruled Out For Thursday Night Football

    Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of the team's Thursday night showdown with the Chicago Bears. The rookie was sidelined in Week 5 with a hamstring injury and was unable to practice this week. Given his production to open the season, Dotson is still worth hanging onto in fantasy redraft leagues, especially if you have an IR spot. Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel should again be in line for significant volume in Week 6, and Dyami Brown (groin) could get involved for the second consecutive week if he is able to play.

    Jahan Dotson Listed As DNP Monday

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant for Monday's estimated practice report. Dotson was inactive in the Week 5 loss to the Tennessee Titans and currently has no timetable for a return, so there's a good chance that he will miss his second straight game on a short turnaround in Week 6 on Thursday Night Football against the Chicago Bears. The 22-year-old rookie has been as advertised early in his first NFL season after impressing in training camp, but fantasy managers should be preparing to be without him again this week. Dyami Brown, who went over 100 yards and scored twice on Sunday, would be in line for a much bigger role again on Thursday if Dotson isn't cleared to play.

    Jahan Dotson Ruled Out Against Titans

    Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans. Hopefully Dotson will end up missing just one game, but he'll likely be at least questionable for Week 6 on a quick turnaround next Thursday night. With Dotson out, Dyami Brown and Cam Sims will be fighting for targets as the No. 3 receiver behind Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel. Tight end Logan Thomas is also questionable to play this weekend, so McLaurin and Samuel could be busy in the passing attack. Dotson has transferred his solid play over the summer into his first four NFL games, catching 12 of his 22 targets for 152 yards and a league-high four touchdowns.

    Jahan Dotson To Miss 1-2 Weeks

    Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) left his Week 4 game against the Dallas Cowboys early and is expected to miss one to two weeks. A favorable matchup for wide receivers (Tennessee Titans) is ahead for the Commanders in Week 5, so Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel should see more targets. Logan Thomas and J.D. McKissic could also be in line for more work. In deeper leagues, Cam Sims or Dyami Brown are decent dart throws, but it's tough to know who the third wideout will be for Carson Wentz.

    Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) stated he's "feeling pretty good" after exiting Sunday's game against the Cowboys. The wideout believes he "was just cramping a little bit" while indicating he will be good to go against the Titans in Week 5. The team could certainly use the rookie out there, primarily since he's already accumulated four touchdowns this season. To be safe, fantasy managers should continue to monitor Dotson's status heading into Week 5.
