Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson could be in for a big rookie season after impressing during the team’s mandatory minicamp.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler provided the latest intel on Monday’s SportsCenter:

“Jahan Dotson, very impressive first-round rookie. While [Terry McLaurin] was out, Dotson took center stage in minicamp. I was there last week, and I was told they are very impressed with what they saw. I spoke with head coach Ron Rivera. He said this guy is a precise route-runner, very fast, very smart. He has been as advertised. They took him in the first round, 16th overall. Some execs and some scouts I talked to thought that was a little rich for him. Good player, but they thought maybe he was more late first round. Washington doesn’t care. They love the guy that they got so far.”

No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin skipped minicamp as he seeks a new contract, leaving a major hole in the passing attack. Dotson is apparently ready to help fill it.
