Commanders could be wasting their most intriguing playmaker
"McCaffrey was written off by some after a disappointing rookie season, but he has made significant progress in Year 2. Through only six weeks, he's already eclipsed his receiving yardage from last year and has caught three touchdowns after having none in 2024. A number of his catches have been huge, game-swinging plays, such as his go-ahead 33-yard touchdown grab in Week 6"
"Life has been especially hard for the Commanders this year due to the limited availability in the wide receiver room. Star wideout Terry McLaurin has missed the past three contests and is out for Week 7. Noah Brown, who has now been placed on injured reserve, has been absent for the last four. This has opened the door for Washington's depth to step up."
The Washington Commanders enter Week 7 at 3-3 with a difficult stretch of opponents ahead that will shape their season trajectory. Wide receiver availability has been a major issue, with Terry McLaurin sidelined and Noah Brown placed on injured reserve, forcing reliance on depth pieces. Jaylin Lane and Luke McCaffrey have shown promise, with McCaffrey already surpassing last year’s receiving yardage and scoring three touchdowns. McCaffrey has produced multiple chunk, game-altering plays, yet he has not played more than 40 percent of offensive snaps in any game, limiting his targets and impact.
