Davis has been a frequent target of QB Jayden Daniels early in training camp while getting reps with the first- and second-team offenses, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports. Davis went undrafted back in 2019 and is now 27 years old with four regular-season NFL appearances to his name (none since 2021), but it sounds like he's making a real bid for a roster spot on a team that lacks sure things at wide receiver beyond runaway No. 1 Terry McLaurin. Davis spent time on three different NFL practice squads last year, after finishing second in the USFL with 575 receiving yards during the league's 2023 season.

Davis has been a frequent target of QB Jayden Daniels early in training camp while getting reps with the first- and second-team offenses, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports. Davis went undrafted back in 2019 and is now 27 years old with four regular-season NFL appearances to his name (none since 2021), but it sounds like he's making a real bid for a roster spot on a team that lacks sure things at wide receiver beyond runaway No. 1 Terry McLaurin. Davis spent time on three different NFL practice squads last year, after finishing second in the USFL with 575 receiving yards during the league's 2023 season.
Allegretti (elbow) appears in line for a starting role with the Commanders after signing as a free agent in the offseason, Zach Selby of the team's official site reports. The guard started the Super Bowl for Kansas City with Joe Thuney out and suffered a UCL tear. Allegretti then signed a three-year, $16-million deal with Washington in March. The sixth-year pro played in 74 games in five seasons with the Chiefs, starting 13.
Luvu (ankle) participated in practice Thursday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports. The linebacker missed a June minicamp session with what looked like an ankle injury, but now he seems healthy and good to go. Luvu signed a three-year, $31-million deal with the Commanders in March and is slated for a big role inside alongside Bobby Wagner. The seventh-year pro recorded 125 tackles, five passes defensed and two forced fumbles with the Panthers in 2023.
Obada (lower leg) was placed on the active/PUP list Wednesday, Chick Hernandez of WUSA 9 reports. Obada suffered multiple lower leg fractures in late November, missing the final six games of the 2023 regular season after undergoing surgery. He is expected to be ready for Week 1 of the regular season, but he'll require some additional time before he'll be able to practice in a full capacity at the Commanders' training camp.
The Commanders activated Newton (foot) from their active/non-football injury list Wednesday, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Newton has spent the offseason recovering from a partial Jones fracture that he suffered last year at Illinois, but it now seems that he's moved past the issue. The 6-foot-2, 304-pound defensive tackle posted 22.5 tackles for loss during his final two collegiate seasons, and he's expected to contribute as a rotational defensive lineman throughout his rookie campaign.
Adam Peters, the Commanders' GM, indicated Tuesday that the team is pleased with Newton's (foot) progress, and he is expected to return 'sooner rather than later,' Ben Standig of The Athletic reports. Newton underwent a procedure on his right foot in January, and then another one on his left in mid-May. A second-round selection by Washington, the rookie is expected to play a role in the team's interior trenches when healthy. While there appears to be optimism regarding his recovery, it remains to be seen when he will be back on the field.
Coach Dan Quinn said Tuesday that Daniels and Marcus Mariota are splitting first-team reps to begin training camp, Albert Breer of SI.com reports. "When [Daniels] is ready, we'll know," Quinn said. During June minicamp it was Daniels, the second overall pick in the 2024 draft, who received most of the first-team reps, but it sounds as though the Commanders want him to now earn the starting job. All things considered, it would come as a surprise if Mariota and not Daniels opened the season under center for Washington, but the team has yet to name a Week 1 starter, and it could take until the preseason before clarity on the quarterback competition is provided. Daniels may need some time to fully acclimate to the aerial components of offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury's scheme, but even if he's rough around the edges early on, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner projects as a high-upside fantasy option right off the bat due to his tremendous dual-threat ability.
McLaurin said this summer that the offseason felt "like the start of something new, special," Ben Standig of The Athletic reports. The Commanders have mostly addressed shortcomings with band-aids throughout McLaurin's tenure, but the changes this offseason were drastic, highlighted by new head coach Dan Quinn and No. 2 overall draft pick Jayden Daniels. The latter figures to become the 10th different starting QB that McLaurin has played with in the NFL, and Kliff Kingsbury is the fourth offensive coordinator. The veteran wideout said Daniels was impressive during spring practices, showing "amazing" touch on his deep ball and "really good anticipation over the middle of the field." It remains to be seen how that translates to actual games, but there's at least some chance of McLaurin experiencing above-average QB play for the first time in his career.
