On the first offensive snap, offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury reminded everyone that Deebo Samuel will be called upon to run the ball at times this season. Samuel came in motion right, took the end-around "jet sweep," scooting 19 yards via solid blocks from right tackle Josh Conerly and tight end Ben Sinnott.

After rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt forgot his first TD ball, Commanders QB Jayden Daniels made sure to retrieve it, paying forward a lesson he learned.

I may be quite high on what the Washington Commanders could do this season, but I seem to have grossly overlooked the lack of depth in their quarterback room behind Jayden Daniels. Perhaps the Commanders subscribe to the Bill Polian notion of quarterback depth?
