8/10/23 | How a couple lineup changes rejuvenated an entire Eagles unit . It's no secret the Eagles' second offensive unit was struggling the first handful of training camp practices. Marcus Mariotta looked shaky, receiver Olamide Zaccheaus was struggling, center Brett Toth was having a hard time getting his snaps cleanly to the quarterback and the whole second group looked ineffective and overmatched. It's not fair to blame Toth for all of those issues. “There have been some more snaps on the ground than we would like, and so it's always a little bit harder (for a quarterback) to handle that,” Nick Sirianni said before practice Thursday.

5/19/23 | NFL Trade Rumors: Eagles WR Quez Watkins to Falcons?. After losing last season's starting wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus to the Philadelphia Eagles in free agency, the Atlanta Falcons are still in the market for a replacement pass catcher ... and it could result in a receiver swap between the two teams. By signing the former Falcons receiver, the Eagles are ultimately moving 2020 sixth-round pick Quez Watkins to wideout No. 4 behind A.J Brown, DeVonta Smith and Zaccheaus ... which brings the potential of a Watkins to Atlanta trade a real possibility.

5/09/23 | Spadaro: Oh Zee is OK with flying under the radar. How many times do you have to overcome the odds and the naysayers and the laws of NFL undrafted rookies before you are viewed as what you are? Since his high school days at St. Joseph's Prep in Philadelphia when Olamide Zaccheaus dreamed large, he has instead too many times heard the opposite. "So much of, 'You're too small,' 'You're not fast enough,' stuff like that," Zaccheaus says. When I went to Atlanta (as a rookie free agent out of Virginia in 2019), it was a stacked receiver room – Julio Jones, Mohamed Sanu, Calvin Ridley, Russell Cage, Justin Hardy, and a bunch of other guys – and I learned from all of those guys.

Getting ready for the season, Zaccheaus is looking to continually improve, something he has done with each passing season. Doing that will require much work, something Zaccheaus is open to.

4/20/23 | Spadaro: An under-the-radar gem? Olamide Zaccheaus is an ideal fit for the Eagles' offense. The numbers were just fine and, in fact, more than fine for Olamide Zaccheaus in 2022 playing for the Atlanta Falcons – a career-best 40 receptions (on only 61 targets) for 533 yards and three touchdowns. The value of Zaccheaus, however, exceeded the raw numbers. Deep into the 2022 campaign, late November to be exact while Mariota was still Atlanta's starting quarterback, Zaccheaus ranked 10th in the NFL in yards per catch (14.96), 13th in reception percentage, catching the ball on 80.6 percent of his targets, and 20th in yards per target (12.1).

But he responded, throwing for more yards in the second quarter than he did all of his debut. Source: https://www.news-daily.com/arena/flicks-forum-falc... |
