Olamide Zaccheaus Fantasy

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is coming off his best performance this season in Week 12. The veteran receiver caught five of eight targets for 91 receiving yards last week and scored 11.6 half-point PPR fantasy points against the Washington Commanders, all season-highs. Yet, fantasy players shouldn't expect similar production this week despite the appealing matchup. The Pittsburgh Steelers have surrendered 34.3 fantasy points per game to wide receiver this season, the most in the NFL. They have also given up the most receiving touchdowns to wide receivers this year (15). Fantasy players in deeper leagues can consider taking a shot on Zaccheaus if they are desperate for a flex option. However, they should prepare themselves for a disappointing performance.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus had his best performance of the year in the team's 19-13 Week 12 loss to the Washington Commanders. The veteran receiver had a season-high five receptions on eight targets in the game. Over the first 11 games this season, the receiver had four or fewer targets in every contest. Furthermore, Zaccheaus scored a season-high 11.6 half-point PPR fantasy points in Week 12. By comparison, he was averaging 7.7 fantasy points per game before Sunday's matchup against Washington. While he had a productive performance, fantasy players shouldn't expect similar production from Zaccheaus moving forward.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus has played well for the team this year. However, his play hasn't turned into meaningful fantasy production. The veteran receiver is averaging only 5.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game this season. He has seen four or fewer targets in every game this year. More importantly, Zaccheaus has scored under five fantasy points in five straight contests. Meanwhile, the Washington Commanders have surrendered 28.6 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, slightly above the league average. Furthermore, they have given up 10 receiving touchdowns to the position this year, including two over the past three weeks. While Kyle Pitts (knee) won't play this week, fantasy players have no reason to start Zaccheaus.
