Are the Commanders set at skill positions?

The countdown to the start of football season is underway. Washington Commanders' rookies will report for training camp on Friday, with veterans reporting on July 28. The most boring part of the summer is almost over, and the buzz is about to get louder as we gear up for the 2026 season.

As players go through their final individual workout programs and gear up to report to camp, there are always storylines to follow and know before things get crazy. NFL.com editor Grant Gordon named storylines for every team ahead of the season, and one of them is around the skill players.

All set at skill spots?

Daniels' injuries were a giant issue in 2025, but not surrounding the blossoming franchise QB with enough talent at the skill spots also loomed large. Looking at the offensive roster on paper, it's difficult to feel the Commanders have remedied those ills. Terry McLaurin -- who dealt with a contract kerfuffle last year, as well as ankle, quad and pelvic injuries -- will hopefully be back to his Pro Bowl self with a full camp and good health. However, the team's WR corps hasn't added much to get overjoyed about. Dyami Brown and Van Jefferson were signed in free agency, while Treylon Burks and Luke McCaffrey are both back -- none of those four reached 30 receptions or 400 yards in 2025. Rookie third-rounder Antonio Williams figures to jump right into the mix and will likely need to be a big contributor quickly. Elsewhere, Jacory Croskey-Merritt should be the lead back after an 805-yard rookie campaign, but he was hardly a consistent producer in Year 1. The most notable additions are former Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo, who should be a breakout candidate after three straight 50-catch seasons with Tennessee, and ex-Buccaneers running back Rachaad White. With Blough's promotion to OC, familiarity remains, but this offensive roster is certainly a candidate for a veteran add or two in the weeks before the regular season commences.

This conversation has been one of the hottest topics around the Commanders. And it's probably, even likely, that they'll add a veteran wide receiver before the end of training camp. But right now, Adam Peters and Dan Quinn seem content to work with what they've got. Maybe they're seeing something we don't know about. Or maybe they're just biding their time to bring the price tag down on Stefon Diggs.

Chig Okonkwo will provide a spark for this offense, and maybe we'll see Antonio Williams step up in a big way for Jayden Daniels. No matter what they do with the receiving corps, the ground game has looked to be rushing-by-committee since the 2025 season ended. It's possible that one of them sets themselves apart from the rest, but until we get to camp, we won't know.

Adam Peters' biggest focus this offseason was on the defensive side of the ball, and rightfully so. Now, though, Peters and Quinn need to figure out if the offensive skill players are up to the task ahead for new offensive coordinator David Blough.
