Eagles acquire wide receiver Jahan Dotson from the Washington Commanders in a trade.

Why it matters: The addition of Dotson strengthens the Eagles' receiving corps and provides quarterback Jalen Hurts with another reliable target.

Dotson's stats:

• Last season, Dotson recorded 49 receptions for 518 yards and four touchdowns with the Commanders.
• In his career, he has caught a total of 84 passes for 1,041 yards and 11 touchdowns in 29 games.

What's new: The Eagles traded a third-round pick and two seventh-round picks in the 2025 draft to secure Dotson's services.

• Dotson will join A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith as part of the Eagles' wide receiver trio.

Yes, but: Dotson struggled to establish himself as Washington's No. 2 receiver opposite Terry McLaurin and was primarily effective in the slot.

• Coach Dan Quinn mentioned that the team was still determining their No. 2 receiver, and the acquisition of Dotson adds competition to the position.

Coach Dan Quinn on determining the No. 2 receiver: "Last week, coach Dan Quinn said the team was still trying to determine who the No. 2 receiver would be; the Commanders drafted Luke McCaffrey in the third round to fill a similar role. McCaffrey had a strong all-around game against the Miami Dolphins on Saturday with two catches for 30 yards in addition to his blocking and special teams play."

What to watch: The Eagles' receiving corps now features a mix of young talent and established players.

• Dotson's presence adds depth and versatility to the offense, creating more options for Hurts.

What's next: The Eagles will integrate Dotson into their offensive system and work on developing chemistry between him and Hurts.

• Dotson's performance during training camp and preseason will be crucial in solidifying his role within the team.

The bottom line: The trade for Jahan Dotson bolsters the Eagles' receiving corps and provides Jalen Hurts with an additional weapon in their offensive arsenal.
