The Washington Commanders completed their first week of training camp on Saturday, wrapping up with non-padded practices and a walkthrough. Defensive coordinator Daronte Jones has been focusing on a variety of looks for quarterback Jayden Daniels, with the defense appearing to lead early on. Notable player highlights include running back Rachaad White, who showed good vision and explosiveness. Conversely, the No. 2 receiver position remains uncertain, particularly as Treylon Burks faced health issues. Center Nick Allegretti is sidelined with a calf strain, prompting the team to sign Trey Hill for additional depth.
