A complete list of the players who competed at Commanders rookie minicamp
The Washington Commanders opened rookie minicamp on Friday with much of the attention focused on quarterback Jayden Daniels.
Joining Daniels were the other eight players in Washington’s nine-player NFL draft class. The Commanders’ second pick, defensive tackle Johnny Newton, was in attendance, but he did not participate due to a foot injury.
Washington’s 11 undrafted free agents, some second-year players, and multiple tryout players also participated in this weekend’s rookie minicamp.

It wasn’t clear why some other second-year players, such as wide receiver Mitchell Tinsley or offensive tackle Braeden Daniels, could not participate. Head coach Dan Quinn was asked about Daniels, and he offered the following response.
Dan Quinn said the team got a look at OT Braeden Daniels with the veterans earlier this offseason. Not eligible for rookie camp even though he missed his entire rookie season.
