On Monday morning, the Philadelphia Eagles lost a young member of their skilled offensive group to an NFC East rival in free agency. The Washington Commanders added a wide receiver to their rebuilt offensive roster after adding a running back to the backfield following the Easter holiday.

The Eagles added a couple of talents from the NFC East in free agency when they signed former New York Gaints running back Saquon Barkley and Giants wide receiver Parris Campbell. With Campbell on the squad, they let Olamide Zaccheaus test the market in free agency.

According to a statement by the Commanders, the team signed Zaccheaus to their roster ahead of the 2024 season.

Zaccheaus has over 100 receptions in his career

The Atlanta Falcons signed Zaccheaus as an undrafted free agent following the 2019 NFL Draft. He played with the Eagles during the 2023 season.

The 26-year-old Virginia product has 104 receptions, 1,492 yards receiving, and ten touchdowns in his five-year NFL career. He caught 10 passes for 164 yards and two touchdowns for the Eagles last season.

Zaccheaus will be a welcome target for depth to whoever is under center for the Commanders in the upcoming season.
