Jahan Dotson Puts In Full Practice Friday
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 Shines As Eagles' Top Receiver
Jahan Dotson stepped up in a big way during Sunday's 20-13 win over the New York Giants. Filling in as the primary receiver with A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith resting for the playoffs, Dotson hauled in seven of his eight targets for 94 yards, leading the team in both receptions and receiving yards. Dotson showcased his ability to thrive when given an expanded role, proving he can be a reliable option in the passing game. As the Eagles gear up for the postseason, Dotson will return to his usual spot as the third receiving option but has shown that he can contribute effectively when called upon. Philadelphia will host the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round.

Jahan Dotson Primed For Increased Role In Week 18
Jahan Dotson will take on an expanded role in Week 18 against the New York Giants, as the team is expected to rest its usual starters, including A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Dotson has struggled to make an impact recently, failing to catch a pass in each of the last two games. However, with the absence of Brown and Smith, Dotson should see a significant increase in targets. This season, Dotson has recorded 12 receptions on 22 targets for 122 yards, along with one rushing attempt for 13 yards. While the Giants boast a middle-of-the-pack pass defense, Dotson's increased volume makes him a potential boom-or-bust option in deeper fantasy formats this week.

Jahan Dotson Catches Lone Pass Early In Game Sunday
Jahan Dotson caught one of two targets for just five receiving yards during Sunday's Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers. Dotson's lone reception came two minutes into the first quarter, and he would not catch another pass for the remainder of the contest. With DeVonta Smith (hamstring) back in the mix, the 24-year-old saw his role get scaled back. He played just 41 percent of the offensive snaps, which represents his lowest mark since Week 6. All in all, Dotson remains a low-volume receiver who has just a dozen catches this season. Fantasy managers can leave him on waivers in all redraft leagues.

Jahan Dotson A Candidate For Additional Opportunities Sunday
Jahan Dotson could earn some fantasy relevance if DeVonta Smith (hamstring), who is listed as questionable, fails to play against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 13. Dotson has a modest 10 catches for 110 yards through 11 games this season, but he played a respectable 68 percent of the snaps with Smith sidelined last week. He could be in line for a similar role if Smith spends Week 13 on the sideline. Also working in Dotson's favor is a matchup against the Ravens, who have allowed the second-most catches, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns to opposing wide receivers, as well as the single-most fantasy points. Fantasy managers should view Dotson as a potential WR4/flex play if Smith is inactive on Sunday.
