D.J. Williams discusses Commanders' shift to under center offense

D.J. Williams, the new quarterbacks coach for the Washington Commanders, shared insights on the team's transition to more under center play. At a recent OTA, he emphasized that playing under center is a fundamental aspect of football that many players have experience with. Previously, quarterbacks Jayden Daniels and Marcus Mariota operated predominantly from the shotgun position under former offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury. Williams attributes the growing focus on more traditional offensive styles to a return to football basics. He expressed confidence in Daniels adapting to this change, citing his prior experience at Arizona State. The Commanders are optimistic about the offensive strategy moving forward as they prepare for the upcoming season.
