Commanders Reportedly 'In Play' for 4-Time Pro Bowl Receiver

Summary

The Washington Commanders may try to sign wide receiver Stefon Diggs, a four-time Pro Bowl player, to strengthen their team. Diggs had a strong season with the New England Patriots in 2025 after recovering from an injury, and joining the Commanders would reunite him with a quarterback, Jayden Daniels, who had success before being limited by injuries.

Key Facts

  • The Washington Commanders had a 12-5 record in 2024 with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels.
  • Jayden Daniels threw for 3,568 yards and 25 touchdowns in 2024 and won Offensive Rookie of the Year.
  • In the next season, injuries limited Daniels to seven games, and the team’s record fell to 5-12.
  • Terry McLaurin was the Commanders’ top receiver but also played fewer games and produced less last season.
  • Deebo Samuel, the leading receiver in 2025, is now a free agent, opening up a spot for another receiver.
  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter said the Commanders are likely to pursue Stefon Diggs.
  • Diggs is from Maryland, played college football there, and had seven 1,000-yard seasons in the NFL.
  • After an ACL injury in 2024, Diggs led the Patriots with 1,013 receiving yards and helped them reach the Super Bowl in 2025.
  • Adding Diggs would give the Commanders a strong second receiver to support Jayden Daniels.
