Summary
Jayden Daniels drew the strongest praise from Stefon Diggs on Friday, with the new Commanders receiver calling the quarterback a “superstar” after his first work with the team.
Diggs said Washington’s skill group should be difficult to defend because opponents cannot easily double one target, citing Terry McLaurin, rookie Antonio Williams, Chig Okonkwo and playmakers out of the backfield.
The veteran wideout also cast his own role broadly, saying he can line up outside, inside and even in the backfield while aiming to add leadership, energy and a “dog mindset.”
Friday marked Diggs’ first on-field practice with Washington, where he debuted No. 18 as the Commanders look to rebound from a disappointing 2025 season.
