Earlier on Monday, we questioned whether or not Washington might be okay at the tight end position, thanks to the breakout of Logan Thomas and Marcus Baugh in training camp. Our consensus was that it may be a bit too soon to say that Washington will be fine at that position, but the continued growth of those two players, in particular, is something extremely intriguing to keep your eye on.
It seems that head coach Ron Rivera agrees, as he mentioned after practice on Monday that both players are looking great, alluding to an impactful season from both of them.
Rivera said Logan Thomas has shown that he can be a good target, especially in the red zone. He also mentioned that Marcus Baugh is probably the most athletic of the tight end bunch.

An interesting thing to note is how Baugh — who went undrafted after coming out of Ohio State in 2018 — has seemingly replaced Richard Rodgers in the TE ranks, with Jeremy Sprinkle finishing out the trio of big pass-catchers.
What’s clear so far is that Dwayne Haskins seems to be loving the addition of some healthy TEs in Washington, and he’s going to them in the passing game as much as he can.
