Stefon Diggs already looking the part for Commanders

One NFL insider saw Stefon Diggs on Wednesday and came away convinced he'll have a big year for the Commanders.

The Washington Commanders' offense showcased their prowess during a joint practice with the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday. Despite recent injuries affecting their offensive line, the team managed to move the ball effectively. A key contributor to their success was Jayden Daniels, who returned from injury and displayed his exceptional skills under center.

Daniels' athleticism and arm talent shone through, allowing him to navigate through defensive pressure and make plays with his arm. With a strong supporting cast of offensive weapons, including Terry McLaurin, Chig Okonkwo, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Rachaad White, and the recently signed Stefon Diggs, the Commanders seem poised for a promising season in 2026.

Stefon Diggs, in particular, made an impressive impression during his first few practices with Washington. The 32-year-old receiver showcased his ability to dominate defenders, utilizing his speed and precise route-running to catch balls in traffic. His chemistry with quarterback Jayden Daniels has also flourished, with McLaurin praising Diggs as the best receiver he has ever played with.

Even the loss of Laremy Tunsil's services has not dampened the Commanders' optimism, as they believe Daniels, Diggs, and McLaurin can still create a special offense for the team.
