Overview
- Dan Quinn and GM Adam Peters held a post-cut news conference Monday to explain the initial 53-man roster and to outline injury and roster plans.
- Coaches voiced strong confidence in quarterback Jayden Daniels after he logged more than 500 training-camp snaps and built timing with top receivers.
- Nick Allegretti returned to practice after a calf strain and the team publicly backs him as the starting center despite limited recent game snaps.
- Backup center depth is thin because Julian Good-Jones was released and moved to the practice squad and rookie Matt Gulbin has minimal NFL experience.
- Washington says it will keep looking for offensive-line help before the Sept. 13 opener, a move that could trigger waiver claims or signings if a veteran becomes available.
