The Washington Commanders entered training camp with high momentum but faced concerns, particularly regarding wide receiver Terry McLaurin’s contract situation. General manager Adam Peters resolved some issues by signing kicker Matt Gay to a record one-year deal. Gay's presence has brought consistency and stability to the kicking role, leading to impressive performances in training camp, including successful long field goals. This stability is pivotal as Washington aims for playoff success, having previously experienced narrow game decisions that could benefit from Gay's reliable kicking.

Gay has been lights out from the moment he got into the building. Those in attendance over Washington's offseason program and training camp noted his consistency at every level of the field.
