Summary
Jayden Daniels delivered another sharp practice in Ashburn, threading multiple deep completions after an injury-shortened 2025 in which he played only four full games.
The 2024 NFC offensive rookie of the year connected with Terry McLaurin, Ben Sinnott and Luke McCaffrey, and also dropped a post-route throw to Jaylin Lane that was well placed but dropped.
Drew Stevens strengthened his push for the kicking job by making all 5 field goals from 33 to 56 yards Tuesday, while Jake Moody missed from 49 and 56 and also failed on a 48-yarder in team work.
Washington also held out Laremy Tunsil and Sam Cosmi from practice, though Tunsil's absence was treated as recovery after Monday's padded session and newly signed corner Fabian Moreau joined drills.
The early camp picture points to Daniels' health and accuracy as the offense's hinge after last season's injuries, with the kicker battle and line health emerging as key roster questions before preseason begins Aug. 13.
