Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Delivers return TD in win
Jaylin Lane failed to secure his lone target and returned three punts for 91 yards -- including a 63-yard touchdown -- in Sunday's 29-21 win over the Giants.Lane was on the field for 28 of the Washington Commanders' 61 snaps on offense, with his 46 percent share marking his highest rate since Week 9. The rookie fourth-round pick was still a relative afterthought in the passing attack, but he contributed the game's biggest play late in the second quarter, when his punt return for a touchdown gave Washington a 12-point lead. With Noah Brown (rib) landing on injured reserve Tuesday, Lane could continue to see ample playing time on offense, but he'll likely remain an unreliable fantasy option while Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel are locked in as quarterback Marcus Mariota's top targets.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Just six offensive snaps Week 14
Jaylin Lane did not record a target during the Washington Commanders' 31-0 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.Lane didn't log a catch for a second consecutive week, though what's more alarming for the rookie fourth-rounder was that he saw the field for just six of 52 offensive snaps (11.5 percent) during Sunday's blowout loss. With Jayden Daniels aggravating his left elbow injury and Zach Ertz done for the season due to a torn ACL, it's hard to trust Lane or any of other Washington pass catcher outside of Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel heading into this Sunday's NFC East tilt against the Giants.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Blanks in Week 13
Jaylin Lane failed to catch his lone target in Sunday night's 27-26 overtime loss to the Broncos.With the return of Terry McLaurin in Week 13, Lane's offensive role was limited. The rookie from Virginia Tech went without a catch for the first time all season and tied his career low in targets during Sunday night's loss. Lane has now caught 16 of 31 targets for 225 yards while also accumulating 279 total return yards through the Washington Commanders' first 12 games this season. He's likely to play a depth role in the team's receiving corps in the Week 14 matchup against the Vikings.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Set for Week 13
Jaylin Lane (hip) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Broncos.Lane made an early exit from the Washington Commanders' last game Week 11 with a hip injury, but he won't miss any more time after following an LP/LP/FP practice regimen this week. The team is getting back No. 1 WR Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) for the first time since Week 8, and Deebo Samuel also is available, so Lane will be in the mix for snaps and targets behind that duo along with Treylon Burks and Chris Moore.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Logs another limited practice
Jaylin Lane (hip) was limited in practice Thursday.Lane entered Washington's bye in Week 12 nursing a hip injury that forced him out early in Week 11 versus Miami, and he's since logged back-to-back limited practices. The rookie fourth-round pick will have one more chance to prove capable of handling full practice reps prior to Sunday's game against the Broncos. Starting wideouts Terry McLaurin (quad) and Noah Brown (groin/knee, IR) have both also retaken the practice field for the Washington Commanders, though, so Lane may find himself in the reserve No. 4 role even if cleared to play Week 13.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Limited at practice to start week
Jaylin Lane (hip) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.Lane made an early exit from the Week 11 loss to Miami in Madrid. He's on the injury report after a Week 12 bye, albeit with some level of practice participation. Either way, Lane is unlikely to see many targets over the next few weeks, as fellow wideouts Terry McLaurin (quad) and Noah Brown (groin/knee) should be back in action fairly soon.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Makes most of only catch
Jaylin Lane brought in his only target for a 41-yard gain during Washington's loss to the Lions in Week 10.Lane played just 14 offensive snaps Week 10, his lowest total of the season (tied with Week 3). However, the rookie fourth-round pick looks positioned to operate as a crucial playmaker for quarterback Marcus Mariota as the Washington Commanders face off against the Dolphins in Madrid on Sunday. Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Treylon Burks (finger) have both already been ruled out for Week 11, leaving Lane as one of the team's top available wideouts alongside Deebo Samuel. The Commanders also have Robbie Chosen, Chris Moore and Jacoby Jones on the active roster.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Solid performance in Week 9
Jaylin Lane caught three of five targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Seahawks.Lane played 41 offensive snaps and served as Washington's No. 3 wideout while Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin) were sidelined in Week 9. The rookie from Virginia Tech tied his career high with three receptions and finished as the Washington Commanders' third-leading receiver Sunday. He also contributed on special teams, returning two punts and one kickoff for 41 total yards. Following Sunday's performance, Lane's offensive role could continue to grow heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Lions.

Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Shares No. 4 wideout role in Week 8
Jaylin Lane caught one pass for zero yards on two targets while playing 23 of the Washington Commanders' 53 snaps on offense in Monday's 28-7 loss to the Chiefs. He also returned two kickoffs for 30 yards and one punt for 14 yards.Lane's 43 percent snap share tied him with Chris Moore for fourth among Washington wideouts, trailing Deebo Samuel, Luke McCaffrey and Terry McLaurin. Both Samuel and McLaurin had returned to action following injury-related absences, though McLaurin was limited to just 25 snaps after suffering an apparent aggravation of his quadriceps injury late in the contest. If McLaurin isn't cleared to play in Washington's next game Sunday versus the Seahawks, Lane could be in line for increased opportunities in the passing game, though he would still make for an unreliable option in fantasy lineups.
