Jayden Daniels's remarkable rookie season solidifies the Washington Commanders' confidence in him as their franchise quarterback. The young quarterback shattered multiple NFL records, throwing for an impressive 3,568 yards in 2024. This success came despite only one receiver, the All-Pro Terry McLaurin, surpassing the 1,000-yard mark. As free agency approaches, the Commanders must focus on enhancing Daniels's supporting cast, particularly in the wide receiver department.

With several pass-catchers like Olamide Zaccheaus, Noah Brown, and Dynami Brown leaving the team, the Commanders are expected to prioritize acquiring a top talent. Tee Higgins from the Cincinnati Bengals has emerged as a prime target. After a productive season, he is set to hit the free agency market with a career-high ten touchdown receptions, and Washington has the financial capabilities to pursue him aggressively. The addition of Higgins would give Daniels another reliable weapon, significantly boosting the offense's prospects for future playoff contention.
