The Washington Commanders are going to need all the help they can get at wide receiver in 2026, which means bringing back players who showed even an ounce of promise in 2025.
That includes wide receiver and former 1st round pick Treylon Burks, who joined the Commanders at midseason in 2025 and played his way into a respectable payday this offseason.
“The Commanders are bringing back former first-round WR Treylon Burks, who impressed in limited time last season, source said,” NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport wrote on his official X account on Friday. “The former Titans pick gets a 1-year deal worth a max of $4M.”
Burks, the No. 18 overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft by the Tennessee Titans, was released by Tennessee before the 2025 season after he broke his collarbone in training camp.
He signed with the Commanders on October 17 and was brought up to the active roster on November 5 — he played in 8 games with 10 receptions for 130 yards and 1 touchdown.
