Commanders find optimism in offense ahead of the 2026 NFL season

As the Washington Commanders approach the 2026 season, the team points to several offensive additions and returning starters as reasons for improvement. Quarterback Jayden Daniels enters the campaign fully healthy after a season limited by injuries in 2025. Offensive coordinator David Blough has implemented a new system while maintaining continuity with Daniels and Marcus Mariota. The team bolstered its roster by signing wide receiver Stefon Diggs and running back Rachaad White to address depth concerns. Additionally, Brandon Coleman is set to start at left tackle, and guard Sam Cosmi has participated in the full training camp schedule after missing time in the previous season. The Commanders also updated their tight end unit with the arrival of Chig Okonkwo and the return of John Bates.
