The Washington Football Team has made a major move in the quarterback market, announcing the commitment of Mississippi State transfer Will Rogers. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound signal-caller is set to join the team for the 2021 season.
Rogers, who started 11 games for the Bulldogs in 2020, is a highly-touted prospect who was ranked as the No. 6 pro-style quarterback in the 2021 class by 247Sports. He threw for 2,902 yards and 14 touchdowns last season, while also completing 63.3 percent of his passes.
The Washington Football Team is hoping that Rogers can be the answer to their long-standing quarterback woes. The team has had a revolving door of signal-callers over the past few years, with no one really taking control of the position.
Rogers is a talented player who has the potential to be a star in the NFL. He has a strong arm and is accurate with his throws, which should make him a great fit for Washington’s offensive system. He also has great mobility, which will allow him to extend plays and make something out of nothing when needed.
Washington’s commitment to Rogers is a sign that they are serious about turning things around and becoming a contender in the NFC East. With a talented quarterback in tow, they should be able to compete with the likes of the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys for divisional supremacy.
It remains to be seen how Rogers will fare in the NFL, but Washington is certainly banking on him being the answer at quarterback. If he can live up to his potential, he could be the spark that ignites a turnaround for the Washington Football Team.
