Episode Details

The Washington Commanders are strategically scouting running backs for the 2026 NFL Draft, with Notre Dames Jeremiyah Love potentially going seventh overall. However, general manager Adam Peters is keeping options open by hosting Nebraskas Emmett Johnson for a pre-draft visit. Johnson had a standout season, rushing for 1,451 yards and 12 touchdowns, along with 46 catches for 370 yards and 3 scores. This move could be a hedge against a crowded backfield and a smart choice if Love is selected early, as Johnson could be a solid Day Two pick at the Commanders seventy-first overall slot.
