Commanders rookies making noise to start season

The Washington Commanders are seeing some immediate contributions from their rookie class, which has scored three touchdowns so far this season.

Jaylin Lane has a punt return for a touchdown and Jacory Croskey-Merritt has ran it in twice, both in Weeks 1 and 3. Commanders head coach Dan Quinn had kind words for the pair of first-year players.

“Well, I would say it's nice to share it around a little bit. Last year one guy just took it the whole time. They didn't share it around. So, it shows that the versatility, the class and their ready. I think it shows their willingness to put it all out there to say, I'm ready to contribute to be a part of this," Quinn said.

"Whether that's through Bill [Croskey-Merritt], that's through Jaylin, there'll be others, but it's a great way to express themselves and demonstrate it. That they can be counted on, they can be leaned in on, although they're young in their careers they're ready. And when somebody gets to demonstrate that and get recognized for it, obviously we're all pumped for them.”
