"The Virginia product went from a lightly-used rookie who still impressively made the roster as a UDFA to a key reserve and sometimes starter over four years in Atlanta, capping off his run with a 40 catch, 533 yards, three touchdown 2022 that showcased his ability out of the slot."
"He's familiar with quite a few current Falcons, has long been lauded as a good teammate, and is capable, productive player who has played both in the slot and out wide and should fill the Falcons #3 receiver role well."
"Zaccheaus' speed and shiftiness also makes him occasionally interesting as a returner and rusher on gadget plays, allowing him to potentially fill multiple niches for a team strapped for resources and cap space."
Olamide Zaccheaus, an undrafted free agent who spent four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons before departing, is returning to the team in free agency. The move reunites him with 2022 teammate Drake London and former quarterback Matt Ryan, now the team's president of football operations. Zaccheaus has proven himself as a capable slot receiver and occasional starter, posting 40 catches for 533 yards and three touchdowns in 2022. Following stints with the Eagles, Commanders, and Bears, he demonstrated continued productivity with 45 catches for 506 yards with Washington and 39 catches for 313 yards with Chicago. The signing addresses Atlanta's critical need for a credible third receiver while providing versatility as a returner and gadget play option.
