3 years agoWashington Football Team wide receiver Dax Milne had a solid game to close out the preseason, taking advantage of the final dress rehearsal before the start of the regular season. The 2021 seventh-round pick has impressed head coach Ron Rivera throughout training camp and has potentially done enough to make it hard for the coaching staff to keep him off the roster. The 22-year old caught three passes for 36 yards on five targets, with his longest catch of the night going for 26 yards deep down the right sideline. Another noteworthy development out of the preseason finale was Milne being ahead of DeAndre Carter for a punt return. The competition between Milne, Carter, and Isaiah Wright would likely come down to who the coaching staff feels more comfortable in returning punts, so it seems the rookie has become the favorite out of the group. Regardless if he makes the roster or not, Milne is off the fantasy radar because of the limited targets that he will be given.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
