Treylon Burks
NFL player. Position: WR. Team: WAS.
Quick Facts
- Position: WR
- Team: WAS (Washington Commanders)
- Draft: Top-5 pick in 2022 rookie draft (drafted by Tennessee Titans)
2026 Outlook
Treylon Burks is a hold-your-talent dynasty candidate for a major comeback story. Originally drafted in the top-5 of 2022 rookie drafts by the Titans, injuries derailed his early NFL trajectory and he was nearly out of the league before a tryout with the Washington Commanders kept him alive. In 2025, Burks posted 10 catches on 22 targets for 130 yards and one TD in eight games for Washington's offense that lacked Jayden Daniels availability.
With the Commanders parting with Deebo Samuel Sr. in free agency, Burks is competing for the WR2 opportunity alongside rookies Antonio Williams and others (Jaylin Lane, Luke McCaffrey, Dyami Brown). He's making a run for the job and represents a "hold your talent" situation in dynasty—if he can stay healthy and secure consistent reps, a top-5 talent could reemerge in 2026. Even if he underperforms, his draft pedigree and low current value make him a worthwhile speculative hold (per 12 Deep Dynasty League Sleepers for Fantasy Football: Undervalued Trade and Draft Targets (2026)).
