Is Rachaad White the Commanders RB to Draft?
Is Rachaad White the Commanders RB to Draft?
Washington presents one of the most interesting backfields to watch for potential 2026 fantasy value. Why? The Commanders ranked fifth in the league in scoring and seventh in total yards with a healthy QB Jayden Daniels in 2024. That team also ranked top 5 in rushing attempts, rushing yards, yards per attempt, and rushing TDs. And although the QB helped those numbers, Washington RBs also tallied the league’s 11th-most PPR points that season. That group found Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler finishing 30th and 32nd, respectively, in PPR points per game. Even last year’s struggling Commanders offense -- with just seven games from Daniels -- still finished ninth in rushing attempts, fourth in yards, fifth in yards per carry and eighth in TDs. This year’s backfield swapped out Ekeler and Chris Rodriguez for multiple new candidates but lacks role clarity as we head toward summer. That’s why it’s important to track the buzz from practices.
David Blough Hired as Commanders’ Offensive Coordinator
David Blough Hired as Commanders’ Offensive Coordinator
The Washington Commanders have promoted assistant QB Coach David Blough to the team's open offensive coordinator position. Blough’s promotion comes after OC Kliff Kingsbury parted ways with the team. Blough was gaining interest from the Lions as a possible OC candidate, so the Commanders moved quickly to retain him. Blough was an NFL QB from 2019-2023, including the end of his career under HC Dan Campbell with the Lions, but they won’t get the chance to poach him.
Kliff Kingsbury Out as Offensive Coordinator of the Commanders
Kliff Kingsbury Out as Offensive Coordinator of the Commanders
Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury is moving on from the team to pursue other opportunities. The Commanders and Kingsbury agreed to mutually part ways after Kingsbury met with HC Dan Quinn. Kingsbury helped lead the offense to 28.5 points per game in 2024, which was fifth in the NFL. In 2025, the Commanders ranked 22nd with 20.9 points per game.
Commanders choose Dan Quinn
Commanders choose Dan Quinn
The Commanders are hiring Dan Quinn to be the new HC. Quinn spent the past three years as Cowboys DC. Those teams finished seventh, fifth, and fifth in points allowed after checking in 28th and 11th the two years before he arrived. Quinn spent 2015-19 as HC of the Falcons, going 43-37 over that span with two winning seasons. Atlanta fired him five games into 2020 (with an 0-5 record). As a career-long defensive coach, Quinn shouldn't affect offensive outlooks in Washington with his arrival. We'll see who he brings in to assist on that side of the ball and what the Commanders decide to do at QB. We'd bet they'll select one with the second overall pick in the draft. The Washington defense can only improve after ranking last in both yards and points allowed in 2023.
Commanders fire HC Ron Rivera
Commanders fire HC Ron Rivera
The Commanders fired HC Ron Rivera on Monday. The writing was on the wall after Washington went 4-13 and ended the season with eight straight losses. Rivera lasted four seasons on the job but never posted a winning record. Per league insider Jordan Schultz, Washington has contacted the agent for Michigan HC Jim Harbaugh. We’ll see if there’s mutual interest. But there’s little doubt that Washington will usher in a new starting QB after Sam Howell’s second-season slump. The Commanders sit atop the league in projected cap space -- $85 million, according to Spotrac -- while they also hold the second overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
