The Washington Commanders are confronting crucial roster decisions as the preseason nears its end. With two preseason games remaining before final cuts, time is running out for players to secure spots on the 53-man roster. The absence of star wide receiver Terry McLaurin creates a significant dilemma, forcing management to evaluate whether to prioritize experienced players or allow younger talent to shine. Roster locks include McLaurin, Deebo Samuel Sr., rookie Jaylin Lane, Noah Brown, and Luke McCaffrey, but the allocation for the remaining positions remains uncertain based on recent performances.
The likes of Chris Moore and Michael Gallup didn't exactly shine at Gillette Stadium. K.J. Osborn was another who found life difficult. Between the three veterans, they brought in four receptions from 13 targets for 41 receiving yards.
The options behind McLaurin were exposed throughout joint practice with the Patriots. This continued in Washington's opening warmup clash, so Quinn and general manager Adam Peters must decide whether to bank on experience or give some younger players a chance further down the depth chart.
