The Washington Commanders enter the 2025 season with a revamped roster under head coach Dan Quinn and offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury. With rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels leading the offense and key acquisitions like Deebo Samuel and Laremy Tunsil bolstering the lineup, the Commanders are positioned for a competitive campaign. This comprehensive depth chart breaks down the current starting positions and backup roles across all three phases of the game.
Key storylines to watch include the battle for the third wide receiver spot, the development of second-year defensive tackle Jer’Zhan Newton, and how the new coaching staff utilizes the team’s improved offensive weapons. The defense, anchored by veteran linebacker Bobby Wagner and cornerback Marshon Lattimore, looks to build on last season’s progress.

This is very unofficial. Last updated July 8th, 2025.
The Washington Commanders depth chart blends veteran leadership with promising young talent. With significant investments in the offensive line and skill positions, Washington appears committed to maximizing Jayden Daniels’ development in his second NFL season. The defensive unit, while featuring proven veterans like Wagner and Lattimore, appears content to rely on continued growth from recent draft picks to complement the established core.
As training camp approaches, several position battles will be worth keeping an eye on. The depth chart may still change significantly before the start of the regular season.
