Commanders' Draft Steal Already 'Trending in Right Direction'

The Washington Commanders took a lot of pride in their defense this past season, especially their ability to defend the pass.

And they further improved their secondary unit through the 2025 NFL Draft.

In a recent article by Bleacher Report's Damian Parson, he puts together a small list of rookies that are looking good heading into their team's training camps. And one of the players he mentions is Commanders second-round cornerback Trey Amos.

"Amos took advantage of veteran corner Marshon Lattimore's absence at OTAs, showcasing his coverage skills and confident demeanor," Parson wrote. "This is the test the rookie needs to prove himself a bona fide starter in Dan Quinn's defense. The latter's defensive scheme has produced big seasons for playmaking cornerbacks like Trevon Diggs and Daron Bland."

There is a viral clip going around of Amos making a big play against star receiver Deebo Samuel at OTAs, and that is not an easy feat for a rookie cornerback.
