As the NFL gears up for another campaign, every team and their fanbase are filled with renewed hope and anticipation.

The journey to the Super Bowl begins in earnest with the start of training camp. Rookies look to make their mark, veterans seek to solidify roles, and coaches fine-tune their offensive and defensive architecture.

Heading into training camp, every team has at least one reason to be optimistic about the 2024 season. From promising new talent and key player returns to strategic offseason acquisitions via free agency, the draft and everywhere in between, we'll dive into those here.

Arizona Cardinals: Influx of Talent

The Arizona Cardinals went only 4-13 last year, but they look primed to compete in a deep NFC West this fall.

Although the Cardinals lost No. 1 wide receiver Marquise Brown in free agency and traded fellow wideout Rondale Moore to the Atlanta Falcons, they bolstered their pass-catching corps in the draft by adding Marvin Harrison Jr., B/R's top-ranked prospect. Losing 13 games put Arizona in a position to draft a talent like Harrison, but five of those losses came by seven or fewer points.

Along with their new wideout in Harrison, the Cardinals also landed potential high-impact rookies in defensive lineman Darius Robinson, cornerback Max Melton and tight end Tip Reiman. In free agency, the Cardinals added offensive tackle Jonah Williams to pair with Paris Johnson Jr., among other moves.

Atlanta Falcons: Kirk Cousins and a Loaded Offense

The Atlanta Falcons spent big during free agency by signing veteran Kirk Cousins to a four-year, $180 million contract. They also selected Michael Penix Jr. with the No. 8 overall pick in the draft, but that's a discussion for another time.

While Penix now projects as the Falcons' potential long-term answer at quarterback, Cousins should provide an immediate boost under center. He'll have plenty of weapons at his disposal, including a trio of top-10 picks in running back Bijan Robinson, wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts.

Those offensive weapons are all entering the fall with lofty expectations, and with only one ball to go around, the onus will remain on Cousins to feed his playmakers the rock. If he does so, Atlanta's ceiling on offense could rival some of the NFL's top units.

With nearly 40,000 career passing yards under his belt, Cousins could be the final piece to the puzzle that elevates Atlanta to its first division title since 2016.

Baltimore Ravens: The Arrival of Derrick Henry

Fresh off his second MVP campaign, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was already a nightmare to defend. The addition of star running back Derrick Henry should now make the Ravens offense even more dangerous.

Henry has led the NFL in carries in four of the past five seasons, and he led the league in rushing yards both in 2019 and 2020. He's had at least 10 rushing touchdowns in each of the past six seasons, too.

The tandem of Jackson and Henry in the Baltimore backfield could be historic. While the Ravens have continued to add talent on the perimeter for Jackson to target through the air, Henry's presence in the ground game will further diversify the Ravens' playbook.

Buffalo Bills: Arrival of Keon Coleman

These aren't your grandfather's Buffalo Bills. They're entering the 2024 campaign with many new faces in new roles.

While quarterback Josh Allen remains, the Bills completely overhauled their wide receiver room this offseason. Gabriel Davis left in free agency to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars, while Buffalo traded star wideout Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans.

That left a gaping hole to fill leading up to the draft. Enter No. 33 overall pick Keon Coleman, who'll be asked to fill the shoes of Davis and Diggs. Coleman's 6'4" frame, explosiveness and ability to play above the rim should help him become Allen's favorite perimeter weapon before long.

Second-year tight end Dalton Kincaid will threaten the seam, and the Bills also signed Curtis Samuel to round out the receiving core. But there's no question heading into camp about who should become the focal point in Buffalo's aerial attack.

Carolina Panthers: Dave Canales and Bryce Young

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young failed to meet expectations as a rookie. His 11 touchdown passes were the fewest of any quarterback with at least 500 pass attempts last season, and his eight games without a touchdown pass were the second-most in league history for a No. 1 pick.

However, the 2023 No. 1 overall pick got little help from Carolina's front five and surrounding offensive weapons. New Panthers general manager Dan Morgan added talent up front and at pass-catcher this offseason.

Not only did the Panthers acquire veteran receiver Diontae Johnson in a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but they also traded up to take Xavier Legette at No. 32 overall.

Morgan also hired Dave Canales, an offensive-minded head coach who arrives in Carolina with an impressive track record with signal-callers in recent years. Both Geno Smith in Seattle and Baker Mayfield in Tampa Bay thrived with Canales as their quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator, respectively.

Canales' ability to establish a rapport with Young and lay the foundation for team success remains paramount as Carolina ramps up for camp.

Chicago Bears: Caleb Williams and New Offensive Talent

Not only did the Chicago Bears land USC quarterback Caleb Williams with the No. 1 overall pick, but they gave him a pair of new targets by trading for Keenan Allen and selecting Rome Odunze at No. 9 overall. Those two paired with DJ Moore gives Chicago arguably the best receiving corps in the NFL.

However, it won't all click unless Williams is able to put it together under center.

A sensational playmaker both inside and outside of structure, Williams' ceiling remains as lofty as any signal-caller in the NFL. It will take time for the former USC Trojan to adjust to the pros, but he has the chance to elevate the Bears offense to unprecedented heights.

It remains to be seen if the Bears' offseason additions will help them clinch their first playoff berth since 2020. But Houston Texans showed last year how quickly a team can turn its fortunes around with a star rookie under center.

Cincinnati Bengals: Reinforcements Up Front

The Cincinnati Bengals selected Alabama wide receiver Jermaine Burton in the third round of this year's draft, perhaps in anticipation of eventually moving on from Tee Higgins. While headlines will continue to swirl around Higgins, keeping quarterback Joe Burrow upright remains of the utmost importance for Cincinnati.

Georgia offensive tackle Amarius Mims, whom the Bengals selected with the 18th overall pick, looks to be a piece both for the now and the future.

The 6'7", 340-pound Mims is a massive man who moves like someone with a much smaller stature. He has the ability to expand Cincinnati's playbook both in the run and pass game (kicking out corners on screens) due to his athleticism and movement skills.

The story remains the same with the Bengals each fall. If they keep Burrow healthy, they'll have a real chance of winning the AFC. But he's suffered two season-ending injuries, and they missed the playoffs in both of those years.

Should Mims avoid the injury bug that plagued him at Georgia, he has the potential to evolve into one of the league's premier offensive linemen.

Cleveland Browns: Added Talent On Offense

The Cleveland Browns enter training camp with questions about their future at quarterback following back-to-back underwhelming seasons from Deshaun Watson. If the veteran signal-caller fails to show improvement, the Browns won't live up to expectations in 2024.

However, the offseason addition of wide receiver Jerry Jeudy should make life easier for Watson or whomever takes over for him. Jeudy's presence will also lift bodies out of the box, presenting more opportune looks for running back Nick Chubb on the ground.

With Jeudy and Amari Cooper, the Browns now have a legitimate 1-2 pairing on the perimeter. Wile Cooper has consistently faced double-teams and bracket coverages throughout his Cleveland tenure, the addition of Jeudy on the opposite side will force teams to account for both sides of the formation.

Jeudy's burst and ability to rack up yards after the catch will add a unique element to the Browns offense.

Dallas Cowboys: Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb

The Dallas Cowboys lost impact players such as tackle Tyron Smith and running back Tony Pollard this offseason. However, Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb are both returning, and they're among the top quarterback-wideout tandems in the NFL.

Lamb is fresh off tallying a career-high 1,789 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns. As long as he stays healthy, the Cowboys' offensive identity should continue to revolve around the passing game.

Meanwhile, Prescott is heading into the final year of his contract and has yet to sign an extension. Cowboys fans should expect to see the best version of Prescott this fall with Lamb as his featured target.

Denver Broncos: New Face Under Center

With Russell Wilson now out of town, Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton enters 2024 with a fresh start. Behind a retooled roster and a new signal-caller in town, the Broncos enter camp with a newfound sense of optimism in the form of No. 12 overall pick Bo Nix.

Although Nix spent the spring spitting reps with backups Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson, the former Oregon Duck figures to take over as QB1 sooner than later.

To help ease Nix's transition to the NFL, the Broncos selected one of his former Oregon teammates, wide receiver Troy Franklin. Although his hands and willingness to compete inside tightly confined spaces were a knock against him during the predraft process, his explosiveness and game-changing speed should fit well in Denver.

Franklin should quickly elevate the Broncos' group of pass-catchers, particularly after they traded Jerry Jeudy to the Cleveland Browns this offseason.

Detroit Lions: More Talent on Defense

After losing to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game last season, the Detroit Lions enter the 2024 campaign with unfinished business. Their roster was already littered with talent, but general manager Brad Holmes added some notable young playmakers via the draft in April.

After taking Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold in the first round, the Lions double-dipped with Missouri cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in Round 2. Arnold is currently penciled in as the starter opposite veteran cornerback Carlton Davis, but Rakestraw could also make a big impact as a rookie.

Rakestraw's physicality, instincts and willingness to mix it up at the line of scrimmage should fit seamlessly into head coach Dan Campbell's defense. The same goes for Arnold's playmaking prowess and comfortability operating inside the contact window.

Expectations remain lofty for the Lions once again this fall. The play of Arnold and Rakestraw (nickel or outside) could help determine their ceiling.

Green Bay Packers: The Next Step For Jordan Love

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love looked like a future superstar during his first full season as a starter. While it took him three years to take over under center, his numbers last year rivaled the NFL's best.

In 17 starts, Love threw for 4,159 yards (seventh-most in the NFL), and his 32 touchdowns ranked second only to Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (36). Love then led the Packers to a 16-point win at Dallas on Wild Card Weekend, where he totaled 272 yards through the air with a trio of touchdown passes.

Green Bay will once again deploy one of the NFL's youngest offenses, headlined by wideouts Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed. In the backfield, the team signed Josh Jacobs in free agency and drafted MarShawn Lloyd in the third round. General manager Brian Gutekunst also bolstered the front five by selecting versatile tackle/guard Jordan Morgan with a first-round pick.

On paper, Green Bay checks all of the boxes on offense. Headlined by Love under center, the Packers should once again sit among the NFL's best in points per game.

Houston Texans: Year 2 for CJ Stroud

Building on a magnificent rookie season remains the primary focus for Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud.

The 2023 No. 2 overall pick made an immediate impact as a rookie, becoming the first player in league history with 1,200 or more passing yards and zero interceptions over his first four career games, per NFL.com's Kevin Patra. He eventually took home NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.

Behind an offensive line that went through its fair share of shuffling early on, Stroud's poise, confidence and ability to create off-script remained on display throughout his rookie season. Including the playoffs, he accumulated the second-most passing yards by a rookie in NFL history (4,557), trailing only former Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck.

The Texans traded for star wide receiver Stefon Diggs and running back Joe Mixon this offseason to further bolster Stroud's skill-position corps. That should set Stroud up for success in his second season.

Indianapolis Colts: A Healthy Anthony Richardson

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson made a strong first impression as a rookie last season. However, he suffered a season-ending Grade 3 AC joint sprain in his right (throwing) shoulder in Week 5.

Moving into camp, Richardson looks primed for a breakout sophomore campaign.

"I've been doing it all," he recently said. "... The support I get from my teammates, the staff and just the franchise in general, I feel that I am the guy, but I'm still young. A couple of years ago, I was just in these guys' shoes, so I'm still trying to adjust to it. But I know one day I'll embrace it all."

While Richardson remains a tick behind in his development process because of how few snaps he's taken in the NFL, his ability to create chunk plays with his arm and his legs should help the Colts put their best foot forward in 2024.

Jacksonville Jaguars: Influx of Talent at WR

The Jacksonville Jaguars lost No. 1 wide receiver Calvin Ridley in free agency, but they rebounded by adding a pair of new weapons for quarterback Trevor Lawrence. After signing Gabe Davis in free agency, they spent their first-round pick on LSU wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr.

While Thomas' release package requires improvement when faced with press coverage, he, Davis and Christian Kirk should complement each other well on the outside. Thomas' size and speed will force defenses to play deep, while Davis' ability to separate in the intermediate areas should help him become a favorite for Lawrence on high-leverage downs.

After winning the AFC South in 2022, the Jaguars failed to take a step last fall under head coach Doug Pederson. After overhauling their receiving corps this offseason, they should have a chance to compete for a division title in 2024.

Kansas City Chiefs: Patrick Mahomes

Patrick Mahomes has led the Kansas City Chiefs to back-to-back Super Bowl championships and he still might not have even reached his ceiling yet.

The Chiefs' offensive structure has changed over the last few years, but Mahomes continues to annually produce at an all-world level while elevating the skill sets around him. That separates him from the rest of the NFL's top signal-callers.

As long as the three-time Super Bowl champion and two-time league MVP is in Kansas City, the Chiefs should be one of the NFL's top teams.

Las Vegas Raiders: Talented Defensive Front

The Las Vegas Raiders enter camp with questions at quarterback, but the addition of defensive tackle Christian Wilkins should excite fans in the desert.

Wilkins spent the first five years of his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins. After he racked up a career-high 9.0 sacks last season, the Raiders signed him to a four-year, $110 million contract in free agency.

Wilkins is one of the NFL's most dominant interior pass-rushers. He'll now pair with Maxx Crosby, who led the AFC in pressures last season, to form one of the league's most feared tandems along the defensive line.

Los Angeles Chargers: Arrival of Jim Harbaugh

The Los Angeles Chargers are heading into a new era with first-year head coach Jim Harbaugh and first-year general manager Joe Hortiz. Former offensive headliners such as Keenan Allen (Chicago Bears), Austin Ekeler (Washington Commanders) and Mike Williams (New York Jets) all now elsewhere.

The Chargers routinely failed to live up to expectations under former head coach Brandon Staley. If they punch their ticket to the postseason under Harbaugh, that should get fans to quickly buy in to the new regime.

Harbaugh is fresh off winning a national championship with Michigan. His arrival in L.A. should introduce a newfound sense of hope for a talented roster that has underachieved in recent years.

Los Angeles Rams: Influx of Youth on Defense

After star defensive tackle Aaron Donald retired this offseason, Los Angeles Rams general manager Les Snead wasted no time to fortify his defensive front.

The Rams front four already featured a pair of standout rookies in Byron Young and Kobie Turner last year. In this year's draft, the Rams added more reinforcements with Florida State teammates Jared Verse (Round 1) and Braden Fiske (Round 2).

If the Rams' young defensive front gels quickly, they could help the team secure a second straight playoff berth.

Miami Dolphins: Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle

Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle remain as important to their team's offensive success as any skill-position tandem in the NFL.

While questions continue to swirl around both the short- and long-term future of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, the Dolphins offense should continue to produce as long as Hill and Waddle are in town. They're both electric playmakers who could trade in their football cleats to compete in track and field at the Paris Olympics.

While the AFC East has seen its fair share of roster-shuffling over the last few seasons, there's no secret who the New York Jets, New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills have to prepare for when Miami is on the calendar.

Minnesota Vikings: Talent on Offense

Rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy will draw the most attention in Minnesota this season, but his surrounding talent on offense is what could help him hit the ground running.

While the Vikings traded up one pick for McCarthy during the 2024 draft, the rookie has primarily worked behind veteran Sam Darnold in preseason workouts.

"It's a good balance of both. ... We're going to have a competitive training camp, but we do have a plan for J.J., a long-term plan," head coach Kevin O'Connell said on The Rich Eisen Show. "We see him as our quarterback of the future, and when that ultimately starts with him taking game reps under center will really be about his process of getting there and demonstrating that he's got total comfort in the system."

It's unclear who will take the majority of snaps this fall. But between wideouts Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, running back Aaron Jones and tight end T.J. Hockenson, the Vikings have one of the most talented skill-position groups in the NFL regardless of who's under center.

New England Patriots: The Future

Drake Maye's first taste of real NFL action may not come for some time. However, patience is a virtue, and the New England Patriots appear ready to play the long game with the No. 3 overall pick of the 2024 NFL draft.

Maye spent some time with the starters during OTAs, but he's also been as low as third on the quarterback depth chart in New England. While veteran Jacoby Brissett received the bulk of the work with the starters in OTAs, signs continue to point up for Maye.

He operated as the backup to Brissett in minicamp—jumping over Bailey Zappe on the depth chart—and continued to flash the skill set that earned him All-ACC honors in his final two seasons at North Carolina.

"Every day he's gotten better," Brissett said of Maye. "He's just constantly trying to find ways to get better... he's been here for what? Three-and-a-half weeks, a month? He's made tremendous strides not only calling the plays but footwork, throwing the ball, and his overall understanding of this offense."

Not rushing Maye's development should remain of the utmost importance for the Patriots, who are rebooting their post-Tom Brady rebuild after the Mac Jones experiment fell flat.

New Orleans Saints: Talented Secondary

The New Orleans Saints have quietly put together one of the NFL's top secondaries. Despite already having Marshon Lattimore, Alontae Taylor and Paulson Adebo in place, they selected fellow cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry with a second-round pick to bolster their depth chart.

McKinstry could be a match made in heaven for Saints head coach Dennis Allen. Although the Alabama product wasn't the longest or fastest cornerback in this year's draft, his eyes, instincts and footwork should give him a high floor.

The talent around McKinstry should also give him opportunities to make plays on the ball. That's something he took pride in during his time at Alabama, as evidenced by his 22 pass breakups in his final two collegiate seasons.

New York Giants: Ceiling of Malik Nabers

The New York Giants enter training camp with questions about their future at quarterback after electing not to spend the No. 6 overall pick to address that position. Instead, they used it on LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers, who should be their most dynamic pass-catcher since Odell Beckham Jr.

During his final season at LSU, Nabers hauled in 89 receptions for 1,564 yards and 14 touchdowns. His 120.7 receiving yards per game led the FBS.

It may be wishful thinking to expect Daniel Jones or Drew Lock to consistently feed Nabers at a variety of depths. However, expect offensive coordinator Mike Kafka to get the No. 6 overall pick involved early this fall in an effort to showcase one of this year's most electric rookie playmakers.

New York Jets: A Healthy Aaron Rodgers

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers took only four snaps last season before suffering a torn Achilles that ended his season. While the four-time MVP tried to make an unprecedented return late in the year, the Jets failed to stay in the playoff race and eventually shut him down.

In 2024, the Jets will soar as high as the now-40-year-old-quarterback can take them.

Rodgers may not be the same all-world quarterback that he was in his prime or even prior to his Achilles injury, but talent doesn't disappear overnight. Considering the group of skill-position players Rodgers will have at his disposal, along with a few upgrades up front in veteran Tyron Smith and first-rounder Olu Fashanu, and the Jets should put points on the board in bunches this fall.

Pittsburgh Steelers: Mike Tomlin

As long as head coach Mike Tomlin is calling the shots, the Pittsburgh Steelers' floor is a shot at an AFC wild-card spot. The Steelers still have yet to finish with a losing record under Tomlin, who is heading into his 18th season at the helm.

Tomlin's ability to add talent, game-plan and execute over the last decade-and-a-half has been matched by only a few coaches in the history of football, regardless of level. While each year presents its fair share of unique challenges—2024 will undoubtedly be the same—Tomlin's fundamental ability to coach often goes overlooked.

With that said, seesawing between quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Justin Fields will be one of Tomlin's biggest tests to date.

Philadelphia Eagles: Additions in the Secondary

After getting off to a 10-1 start last season, the Philadelphia Eagles collapsed, losing five of their final six regular-season games. They gave up 250-plus passing yards in three of those five losses, as well as their blowout loss to Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during Wild Card Weekend.

This offseason, Eagles general manager Howie Roseman wasted no time in shoring up his secondary. The team reunited with C.J. Gardner-Johnson in free agency and then spent early-round draft capital on Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell and Iowa's Cooper DeJean.

While veterans Darius Slay and James Bradberry remain in Philly for now, Mitchell's elite athletic profile, ball skills and pure man-coverage ability should help him earn a starting job right away. And regardless of whether he gets snaps primarily at corner or safety, DeJean's hybrid skill set should allow new defensive coordinator Vic Fangio to remain creative with his personnel on the back end.

San Francisco 49ers: Talent... Everywhere

While the future of wideout Brandon Aiyuk will remain the focus for the San Francisco 49ers as training camp kicks off, the talent on the roster remains unmatched in the NFL with or without Aiyuk.

The Niners are dripping with elite cornerstone talent and intriguing, young impact players. San Francisco sits in a tier of its own when it comes to the amount of playmakers it can deploy in all three phases of the game.

The Niners are looking to make their fourth consecutive trip to the NFC title game in 2024. The future Hall of Famers scattered across their roster will continue to give them an extremely high floor.

Seattle Seahawks: Youth-Infused Defense

New Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald is an aggressive, defensive-minded tactician. The former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator will now look to transfer his success to the Pacific Northwest.

Among the headliners for Seattle is defensive lineman Byron Murphy II, whom the Seahawks selected 16th overall in this year's draft. Macdonald's experience working with Ravens defensive tackle Justin Madubuike should assist Murphy as he gets his feet wet in the NFL. Seattle also brought back Leonard Williams to play off Murphy's hip within the trenches.

Off the edge, Boye Mafe and Derick Hall look primed to evolve into consistent playmakers. With offenses focused on stopping Murphy and Williams on the interior, both players should see plenty of isolated opportunities to create pressures.

In the secondary, 2023 No. 5 overall pick Devon Witherspoon and 2022 Pro Bowler Riq Woolen remain one of the top young duos in the game.

The Seahawks finished 25th in points allowed last season, but MacDonald's arrival should help them drastically improve on that side of the ball.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Impactful Offseason

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers didn't make a huge splash this offseason. That's often the best approach.

This spring, general manager Jason Licht focused on his in-house talent. He re-signed quarterback Baker Mayfield, star wide receiver Mike Evans and safety Antoine Winfield Jr. The team also brought back linebacker Lavonte David, and reunited with safety Jordan Whitehead after his two-year stint with the New York Jets.

In the draft, the Bucs added the most versatile lineman in the class in Graham Barton. They also added a versatile offensive weapon in running back Bucky Irving and wide receiver Jalen McMillan in the later rounds to expand the playbook under new offensive coordinator Liam Coen.

Other moves around the division may have garnered more headlines this offseason, but Licht has put Tampa Bay in an excellent spot to compete for a fourth straight division title.

Tennessee Titans: Will Levis' Surroundings

The Tennessee Titans aggressively sought to improve their offense around second-year quarterback Will Levis this offseason.

In free agency, the Titans splurged on the likes of wide receiver Calvin Ridley, running back Tony Pollard, center Lloyd Cushenberry III and wideout Tyler Boyd. In the draft, they added offensive tackle JC Latham with the No. 7 overall pick after spending a first-rounder on fellow offensive lineman Peter Skoronski in 2013.

Two years after trading wide receiver A.J. Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles and heading into their first season without star running back Derrick Henry, the Titans have seemingly pieced together the playmakers they'll need to compete at a high level. Ridley, an explosive perimeter threat, will now pair with DeAndre Hopkins, Treylon Burks and Boyd to make life easier on Levis.

With a new, offensive-minded head coach in Brian Callahan, Tennessee has the talent to surprise this fall should Levis continue to progress under center.

Washington Commanders: Entirely New Operation

It's an exciting time for Washington Commanders faithful.

There's new ownership in place, a new general manager (Adam Peters), a new head coach (Dan Quinn) and a new potential franchise quarterback (Jayden Daniels).

Washington spent the No. 2 overall pick on the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, who enters the fold as the Commanders' most talented signal-caller in more than a decade.

In his first offseason, Peters wasted no time in adding impact veterans in free agency. Linebacker Bobby Wagner, offensive lineman Tyler Biadasz and running back Austin Ekeler could each earn substantial snaps this fall.

The Commanders also added potential high-impact rookies in the draft with corner Mike Sainristil, tight end Ben Sinnott, tackle/guard Brandon Coleman and wideout Luke McCaffrey.

Washington will enter the fall as an unknown with so many new pieces. While the Commanders have had only four winning seasons since 2000, their long-term future is starting to look bright.
