Commanders Hunt Receiver Upgrades, Eyeing Aiyuk

On April 1st, the Washington commanders know they need another top receiver to pair with Terry McClorn and give Jaden Daniels real options through.

The air. Right now, Terry is basically their only proven target, so they're hunting for upgrades ahead of next season.

Rumors keep pointing to San Francisco 49er star, Brandon Ayuk, who's facing a possible release after the team got frustrated with his rehab, from a torn ACO.

He hasn't played in over a year, and his future there looks shaky.

Team insiders say the commanders aren't sitting around waiting for Ayuk to hit free agency or get cut.

They're not trading for him either. Figuring the 49ers will let him go eventually, but they won't pass up other moves just to chase him.

Questions linger on whether Ayuk could even hit the ground running after such a long layoff. Would it take months to give back to form and can?

Washington affore that delay when Daniels needs help now? All roads lead to the commanders keeping their options wide open, from free agents to trades, making sure they're locked and loaded without banking on.

One injured playmaker.
