Commanders depth chart update ahead of Week 1 vs. Giants

The Washington Commanders have narrowed their roster down to 53 players ahead of the team's season opener against the New York Giants.

Here's a look at how the Commanders are expected to line up against the Giants:

Quarterback: Jayden Daniels, Marcus Mariota, Josh Johnson

Running Back: Austin Ekeler, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Jeremy McNichols, Chris Rodriguez Jr.

Ekeler will likely start in the beginning part of the year, but he should be splitting carries with Croskey-Merritt relatively soon. Croskey-Merritt could also emerge as the starter at some point during his rookie year.

Wide Receiver: Terry McLaurin, Deebo Samuel, Noah Brown, Luke McCaffrey, Jaylin Lane

Tight End: Zach Ertz, John Bates, Ben Sinnott, Colson Yankoff

Ertz is the "starter," but Bates will see plenty of time on the field as a blocking tight end.

Left Tackle: Laremy Tunsil

Left Guard: Brandon Coleman, Chris Paul

Center: Tyler Biadasz

Right Guard: Nick Allegretti

Right Tackle: Andrew Wylie, Josh Conerly Jr., Trent Scott, George Fant

Wylie currently has the starting right tackle job, but Conerly is right on his tail as the team's first-round draft pick this year.
