The broad Olamide Zaccheaus receiver left the Washington Commanders.
Zaccheaus will not wear Burgundy and gold during the 2025 season, while the veteran receiver signed with the Chicago Bears THURSDAY. The former Virginia Cavalier experienced a career in the NFL career in 2024, playing with Jayden Daniels in the Kingsbury Kliff offensive. During his sixth season of the NFL and first with the commanders, Zaccheaus captured 45 passes for 506 yards (11.2 YPR) for three receives and first downs.
The Bears obviously liked Zaccheaus and pursued him, believing that he could be another weapon for the quarter of the Bears Caleb Williams. Williams was from top to bottom in 2024, but there was no doubt that an athlete was more than enough, having a racing force, the mobility of racing and the strength of the arms.
What does Zaccheaus mean to lose commanders? Zaccheaus was a pleasant surprise in 2024 with his 45 receptions. It should not be known that Zaccheaus was the receiver of the third head commanders in 2024 behind Terry McLaurin and Zach Ertz.
However, on the same day, the commanders did not signify Zaccheaus, they re-signed KJ Osborn and Noah Brown receivers. Starting with Brown, he was more than willing to block on the edge and the field of last season, doing what he could to help the commanding game game. Brown has also effectively defeated opposing defensive backs and has led to defensive passing interference penalties. Brown returning with McLaurin and Deebo Samuel gives Kingsbury three physical receivers who are not afraid and ready to block and dirty their hands.
At the 28th in June, Osborn was released by the Patriots after seven games last season and quickly claimed by GM commanders Adam Peters. But Osborn was often placed on the inactive list, appearing only in a single set of commanders.
In particular, in 2021-23, Osborn experienced three consecutive productive seasons of 50, 60 and 48 receptions. In addition, fans of fervent commanders will remember Brown Show size and strength, making difficult captures in traffic and being ready to play physically in the race game and special teams. Can Osborn reproduce its production of seasons 2021-23? It will be uncertain in the training camp, and it is in Osborn to prove himself again in the NFL.
Finally, not being completely missed is Luke McCaffrey who will only be in his fourth football season by playing at the receiver. During his stay at Rice University, McCaffrey was converted from quarter to receiver and learned the new position his last two years as a rice owl. Consequently, 2025 could also be an increasing year for McCaffrey.
