Washington Commanders Highlights vs. Miami Dolphins | 2024 Preseason Week 2
3 months ago
Jaylen Wright - Held out due to injuryWright was held out of Saturday's preseason contest against the Commanders due to an unspecified injury, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
ImpactIt's not clear what injury Wright picked up during practice this week, but head coach Mike McDaniel didn't seem concerned about the severity in any facet. It seems likely the rookie running back will return to practice in short order and build upon what was an excellent preseason opener, in which the 2024 third-round pick ran for 55 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries.

Jonnu Smith - Four catches in preseason winSmith brought in all four targets for 23 yards in the Dolphins' 13-6 preseason win over the Commanders on Saturday night.
ImpactThe veteran offseason addition was on the receiving end of Tua Tagovailoa's second target of the night and finished second in reception for Miami overall. Smith should have a good chance of developing into the primary pass-catching option at tight end over Durham Smythe as the season unfolds, and Saturday's performance offered a glimpse of what he'll be able to bring as a complementary option to Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) and Odell Beckham (undisclosed).

Jahan Dotson - One catch in preseason lossDotson secured one of two targets for three yards in the Commanders' 13-6 preseason loss to the Dolphins on Saturday night.
ImpactDotson was on the field with Terry McLaurin and Dyami Brown to open the game, playing ahead of rookie third-round pick Luke McCaffrey. Dotson is trying to hold on to the No. 2 receiver job at McCaffrey's expense, and the competition between the two is likely to come down to the last few training camp practices and the Aug. 25 preseason finale versus the Patriots.

Terry McLaurin - Pair of catches from DanielsMcLaurin secured two of three targets for 27 yards in the Commanders' 13-6 preseason loss to the Dolphins on Saturday night.
ImpactMcLaurin recorded his catches from Jayden Daniels on back-to-back plays on the first possession of the game, displaying some encouraging chemistry with the rookie signal-caller. The veteran wideout is set to once again operate as the No. 1 receiver in Washington's offense, and Daniels' seemingly accelerated acclimation curve this summer brightens the outlook for the talented pass catcher come the regular season.
AUGUST 18ROTOWIRE
Austin Ekeler - Limited to receiving work SaturdayEkeler brought in his only target for four yards in the Commanders' 13-6 preseason loss to the Dolphins on Saturday night.
ImpactThe fact Ekeler didn't see a rush attempt was somewhat surprising, but he didn't appear to remain in the game past the second possession. The veteran back is set to work in a complementary role alongside Brian Robinson this coming season, and his preseason usage profile through two games appears to corroborate that standing.
