Commanders wide receiver Van Jefferson named potential roster cut

Van Jefferson of the Washington Commanders is identified as a leading candidate for roster cuts as the team approaches the deadline for finalizing its lineup. With the addition of Stefon Diggs, Washington has strengthened its receiver depth, which may impact Jefferson's place on the team. Currently listed third on the depth chart behind McLaurin, Diggs, and others, Jefferson faces tough competition, especially after the Commanders drafted Antonio Williams, who has performed well during camp. As a veteran, Jefferson could find opportunities with other teams should he be released.
