The Commanders brought in nine players for workouts, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC, as the team continues to look at options across multiple spots.
Washington worked out LS Cal Adomitis, WR River Cracraft, WR D’Wayne Eskridge, P Jamie Gillan, P Matt Haack, WR Malik Heath, QB Seth Henigan, P Thomas Morstead, and WR Quincy Skinner.
Morstead is the most experienced name in the group. The 40-year-old was originally drafted in the fifth round by the Saints in 2009, then landed a six-year extension worth $21.9 million in 2012. He later re-signed with New Orleans in 2018 on a four-year, $15.85 million deal.
His time with the Saints ended in March, when he was released with two years left on his contract. From there, Morstead bounced through a series of short stops: he joined the Jets as an injury replacement for starting P Braden Mann, got cut when Mann returned, then signed with the Falcons for the rest of the 2021 season and later with the Dolphins for 2022.
The Jets brought him back on a contract in March of 2023, released him temporarily after the preseason, then re-signed him in August and gave him a two-year deal for the 2024 season. New York cut him loose again in May of 2025, and Morstead then signed a one-year deal with the 49ers.
In 2025, Morstead played in all 17 games for San Francisco and finished with 1,919 yards on 44 attempts (43.6 YPA) and 22 punts downed inside the 20-yard line.

Commanders Receiver Battle Just Opened The Door For An Overlooked Rookie
The Commanders spent the offseason adding pieces in a few spots, but receiver still looks like one of the thinner areas on the roster. After not bringing back Deebo Samuel and making only modest additions in free agency, the room has opened up enough that an undrafted rookie can at least get a real look, and Jaden Bradley is trying to turn that chance into something more than a camp footnote.
Bradley arrives with some college production from UNLV and a profile that gives Washington a different kind of lottery ticket at the position. He is still a long shot, especially with Van Jefferson and Treylon Burks among the names fighting for what could be the last spot, but the path is there if he can stack together a standout summer and make the coaches keep finding reasons to watch him.

Adam Peters Just Fueled Brandon Aiyuk Talk In Washington
Adam Peters didnt exactly shut the door on the kind of roster chatter that always follows a name like Brandon Aiyuk. Asked about whether a players social-media habits can matter in personnel decisions, the Commanders general manager said the team weighs plenty of factors, even if that sort of online footprint is not usually near the top of the list. It was the kind of answer that keeps a rumor alive without feeding it too much oxygen.
Dan Quinn also leaned into the moment, recognizing the tactful way the question was framed as Washington continues to be linked, however loosely, to the 49ers receiver. If the Commanders ever got serious about that kind of move, Jayden Daniels would naturally be part of the conversation, which is why Peters answer landed with a little more weight than a routine offseason comment. For now, the interest is more about how Washington is thinking than what it is actually about to do. [Read more 🡒]
Commanders Just Made A WR Move That Raises Bigger Questions
Training camp has barely gotten underway, and the Commanders have already added another name to the receiver room by signing River Cracraft. Hes a familiar face in Washington after a brief stint with the team last season, and the move comes as the club continues to sort through its options behind Terry McLaurin at a position that still feels like it could use more help.
General manager Adam Peters has made it clear the team is looking at more than just talent when it evaluates possible additions, saying the process includes everything from locker-room fit to culture. With receiver speculation still swirling around names like Stefon Diggs, the Cracraft signing feels more like a small roster move than a final answer, leaving the bigger question of how aggressive Washington plans to be at the position.
