Showdown brewing at wide receiver as Commanders hit preseason stage
Briefly

The Washington Commanders have a promising wide receiver group after trading for Deebo Samuel Sr. and drafting Jaylin Lane. This core includes Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown, and Luke McCaffery, though all have questions surrounding them. McLaurin’s precarious contract situation exacerbates uncertainty. The team needs to confirm talent due to McLaurin’s potential absence. Peters has built a deep, varied group of veterans and newcomers, preparing all to demonstrate their capabilities, especially as competition for roster spots intensifies with the preseason approaching. Michael Gallup provides potential as he returns from retirement.
Samuel's downturn in production last season raised questions about his age. Hail Mary hero Noah Brown and second-year emerging star Luke McCaffery have yet to prove their ability.
As McLaurin’s contract situation gets direr, he has become the biggest question mark. His absence opens the door for others, intensifying the competition for roster spots.
Peters recognizes the importance of a constant supply of talent. He has assembled a strong group of veterans and youngsters, all set to showcase their skills.
Michael Gallup was an excellent deep ball threat and is attempting a comeback after a year in retirement. He could be a secret weapon if healthy.
