Zaccheaus totaled four receptions on seven targets for 37 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 30-17 win versus the Buccaneers.
What it means:
Zaccheaus caught his first touchdown since Week 5 and saw at least seven targets for the just the third time during the campaign, with two of those instances coming with Desmond Ridder at the helm. However, overall, the wideout struggled in four games with the rookie at quarterback, totaling just eight receptions on 17 targets for 55 yards compared to 32 receptions for 478 yards across 13 games with Marcus Mariota as the starter. Over the past two seasons, Zaccheaus has caught 71 of 114 targets for 939 yards and six touchdowns, and he'll likely test the free agent market this offseason after his one-year deal expired, though a return to Atlanta hasn't been ruled out yet.
Zaccheaus logged zero targets during Sunday's 20-19 victory versus Arizona.
What it means:
Zaccheaus played the second most snaps among Atlanta's wideouts, but he didn't record a target. Desmond Ridder may have led a game-winning drive, but the Falcons' passing attack remains lackluster at best. Zaccheaus caught 32 of 44 targets for 478 yards and two scores across 13 games with Marcus Mariota as the starter, but the wideout has secured just four of 10 targets for 18 yards over three games with Ridder at the helm.
Zaccheaus caught four of seven targets for 18 yards in Saturday's 17-9 loss to the Ravens.
What it means:
For the second straight game with Desmond Ridder under center, Zaccheaus failed to make much of an impact as the rookie QB focused on feeding the ball to Drake London. Zaccheaus has already set career highs in catches (36) and receiving yards (496) this season, but his campaign may be poised to end with a whimper. He'll try to get on the same page as his new quarterback in Week 17 against the Cardinals.
Zaccheaus didn't record a catch on three targets during Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Saints.
What it means:
Zaccheaus was held without a catch for the first time this season. Atlanta's passing game struggled as a unit with Desmond Ridder making his NFL debut, and Drake London, who finished with seven receptions on 11 targets for 70 yards, dominated the majority of the work through the air. Coming into the contest, Zaccheaus had secured 32 of 44 targets for 478 yards and two touchdowns across 13 appearances, making him worthy of consideration in deeper leagues. However, what little fantasy value Zaccheaus had with Marcus Mariota (knee) may be gone with Ridder set to start Atlanta's final three regular season games.
Zaccheaus tallied two receptions on five targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 19-16 loss against Pittsburgh.
What it means:
Zaccheaus finished second on the team in targets behind Drake London, who led Atlanta with six receptions on 12 targets for a career-high 95 yards, but the former struggled to make a sizable impact with his increased looks. With Kyle Pitts (knee) sidelined, Zaccheaus has seen 13 targets over the past two contests, which is by far the most he's had in any two-game stretch this season. Despite the modest production in Week 13, he continues to be one of the more reliable pass catchers in Atlanta, totaling 32 receptions for 478 yards and two scores across 13 appearances.
Zaccheaus recorded five receptions on eight targets for 91 yards in Sunday's 19-13 loss to the Commanders.
What it means:
Zaccheaus entered Sunday's game having failed to record multiple receptions in each of his last four games. However, he emerged to command a season-high eight targets and managed lengthy receptions of 45 and 23 yards. His 91 yards was his highest mark in a game since Week 9 of the 2020 season, though Zaccheaus could continue to see an expanded role thanks to the targets vacated by the absence of Kyle Pitts (knee).
