It sounds like everyone is expecting Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson to have a big year in 2023.
We named Dotson Washington’s breakout player for 2023. Others have echoed a similar sentiment. Even Dotson views the 2023 season as a breakout year for himself.
Bleacher Report recently named one promising building block for all 32 NFL teams for the upcoming 2023 season. Dotson was the choice for the Commanders.
As noted earlier, some of the best offenses in the league right now have an elite wide receiver duo.
Some of the Commanders hope lies with Sam Howell right now. The fifth-round quarterback will start this season if he can fend off Jacoby Brissett in training camp.
But hoping a fifth-round pick pans out as the franchise quarterback is potentially wishful thinking. Hoping Jahan Dotson can become an elite No. 2 option with Terry McLaurin is an expectation.
Curtis Samuel was in that role most of the time last season, but Dotson did prove his worth as a surprise red zone threat. The 5’11”, 182-pound receiver led the team in receiving touchdowns with seven.
Dotson is motivated to show his ceiling is much higher than what he showed in 2022.
