Jamison Crowder Has Minimal Upside In Regular-Season Finale
Despite the Washington Commanders offense excelling this year under impressive rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, veteran wide receiver Jamison Crowder hasn't made much noise, even with Noah Brown (kidney) recently suffering a season-ending injury. That probably won't change in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys and their beat up defense. The 31-year-old saw a season-high five targets in last week's overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons, but Crowder caught only three passes for 25 yards. The 31-year-old is averaging a career-low 8.0 yards per catch and has only nine receptions on 13 targets for 72 yards and two touchdowns in the five games he's played this year. The Cowboys defense has allowed the sixth-most half-PPR points per game to wideouts this season, but Crowder's minimal role on offense makes him avoidable in fantasy yet again in Week 18.
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder hauled in three of his five targets over 25 yards in Sunday night's 30-24 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Crowder has missed most of the season due to a calf injury. The veteran wideout returned from injured reserve in Week 15 and has slowly played more snaps and seen more targets in each game he has played. The three receptions were third on the team behind Zach Ertz and Olamide Zaccheaus. The Commanders clinched a playoff spot with their win in Week 17, so it is uncertain how head coach Dan Quinn will want to play things in Week 18 versus the Dallas Cowboys. Crowder's recent uptick in snap percentage and target share puts him on the WR4 map for Week 18.
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder is set for an increased role on Sunday evening against the Atlanta Falcons. With Dyami Brown (hamstring) ruled out, Crowder now sits as the No.3 wide receiver on the depth chart. Crowder played the hero last weekend, catching two of his four targets for two touchdowns, including the game-winning score in the final minutes. This was the first time this season the veteran wideout saw at least four targets in a single game. With Noah Brown (kidney) and Dyami Brown both sidelined, Crowder should be set to see a similar target share once again. Crowder is worth a look as a sneaky play in DFS but should not be started in any season-long format despite facing an Atlanta secondary that has allowed the third-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season given he has had minimal fantasy production all season long.
Jamison Crowder Catches Game-Winning Score In Week 16
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder caught both of his two targets for 14 yards and two scores during their victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Crowder caught his first TD reception of the afternoon in the opening quarter on a four-yard pass from Jayden Daniels. Crowder would then play the hero as he brought in second reception of the afternoon from nine yards out for the game-winning score with just five seconds remaining. Crowder only appeared in three games prior to Week 16 as he battled a calf injury for a majority of the season. Fantasy managers should monitor his usage going forward as he may become a starting option in a Washington passing attack that lacks proven options outside of Terry McLaurin.
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder (calf) is active for Week 15. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. He was activated from injured reserve over the weekend, suggesting that he would be able to suit up. The veteran receiver played in two games at the start of the season, catching just one pass for five yards. Crowder should be avoided in all fantasy leagues.
Commanders Place Noah Brown On IR, Activate Jamison Crowder
The Washington Commanders have placed wide receiver Noah Brown (internal injuries) on the injured reserve and have activated wide receiver Jamison Crowder from the reserve/injured list. Brown had 35 catches for 453 yards and a receiving touchdown this season. Crowder will now provide some depth at the wide receiver position for Washington behind Terry McLaurin, Dyami Brown, and Luke McCaffrey in Week 15 against the New Orleans Saints.
Jamison Crowder Not Ready To Return To Practice Yet
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder (calf) is not ready to have his practice window opened, according to head coach Dan Quinn. The veteran in his 10th NFL season was placed on Injured Reserve on October 2 and is eligible to return, but he is still working his way back from a calf injury. Crowder has tallied 432 receptions for 4,831 yards and 29 touchdowns in 119 career games with Washington, the New York Jets, and the Buffalo Bills, but he has become primarily a return specialist in recent years and is not on the fantasy football radar.
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Week 2 against the New York Giants. The veteran had logged just three snaps in the season opener, catching one pass for five yards. Fellow receiver Noah Brown will be active in Crowder's place. Brown had been a healthy scratch in Week 1 as he was still acclimating to the Commanders' offense. Even if this dynamic remains in place for weeks to come (Brown active, Crowder inactive), Brown isn't a reliable fantasy option.
Wide receiver Jamison Crowder re-signed with the Washington Commanders on Wednesday on an undisclosed one-year deal, according to a source. In his return to D.C. in 2023, Crowder caught just 16 passes on 20 targets for 159 yards and one touchdown in 17 games played. The 30-year-old veteran slot man mostly served as the team's punt returner last year and will once again play a depth role at the receiver position in 2024 behind Jahan Dotson. Washington originally made Crowder a fourth-round pick in 2015 out of Duke. His best season came in Year 2 in 2016, when he caught 67 passes for a career-high 847 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games. Unless injuries strike to several Commanders pass-catchers in 2024, it's unlikely that Crowder will be on the fantasy radar at this stage of his career.
Jamison Crowder An Under-The-Radar Option In Week 9
Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder could be a decent under-the-radar option in Week 9 against the New England Patriots. With fellow wide receiver Curtis Samuel (toe) ruled out, the veteran could see solid usage once again. Last week, Crowder hauled in seven targets for 95 yards and a touchdown while Samuel was hobbled. If he ends up being in the same role, the 30-year-old could surprise with a strong total for the second week in a row. With four teams on bye this week, Crowder could be a solid last-resort fill-in for desperate rosters.
