Stefon Diggs Impressed by Commanders Offense After Day 1
Veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs took the field for his first training camp practice with the Washington Commanders on Friday.
Stefon Diggs, the 32-year-old wide receiver, made his debut with the Washington Commanders during their first day of training camp practice on Friday. The news of his signing broke on Wednesday and was confirmed on Friday. Diggs will join a roster that includes veteran Terry McLaurin and rookie Antonio Williams. During a post-practice interview, Diggs expressed his admiration for the team's offensive capabilities, stating, "It's good being around other players that can ball.
It’s going to be hard to double somebody in this offense. You’ve got guys that can make plays and guys that can make plays out of the backfield. You’ve got a mobile quarterback." Diggs' excitement was particularly evident when discussing rookie Antonio Williams, the Commanders' 71st overall pick. "The 14 can hoop a little bit," Diggs remarked with a chuckle.
In his 2025 season with the New England Patriots, Diggs recorded 85 catches for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns. The Commanders are set to kick off their 2026 regular season with a Week 1 game against the Philadelphia Eagles on September 13.
