"With David Blough expected to run a more pro-style offense, fans are anticipating significant personnel changes. The Commanders have their franchise quarterback in Jayden Daniels. They also have a stable offensive line that could get all five starters back if left guard Chris Paul is extended. But the skill positions need to be upgraded for this plan to work. Not everyone who's played a role under Quinn's regime over the last two years is going to get another chance."
"After flashing promise during his first campaign with the club, the Commanders gave Noah Brown another one-year extension. There were concerns after the wide receiver suffered a serious internal issue that required kidney surgery, but he was adamant that the worst was behind him. Unfortunately, his luckless run on the injury front was just beginning. The pass-catcher missed almost the entire offseason after suffering a knee injury."
"Brown will always be remembered fondly in Washington. He was the player who caught the Hail Mary miracle against the Chicago Bears in 2024, which propelled the Commanders onto a sensational run that eventually ended in the NFC Championship game. At the same time, Peters is not attaching emotion to his decision-making process, and the wideout cannot be relied upon to stay healthy."
The Commanders fired both coordinators and are pursuing more innovative offensive ideas under Dan Quinn, aiming for a rebound in 2026. David Blough is expected to implement a more pro-style offense, prompting anticipation of significant personnel changes. The team has a franchise quarterback in Jayden Daniels and a potentially intact offensive line if left guard Chris Paul is extended, but the skill positions require upgrades to fit the plan. Not all current contributors will be retained. Noah Brown's repeated injuries and extended absences make his future in Washington unlikely despite memorable past moments.
