When Jaylin Lane fell to the Washington Commanders in the 2025 NFL Draft, to say that they were excited to get the former Virginia Tech standout would be an understatement.
Lane impressed in team workouts leading into training camp over the summer, and then in camp, he continued to open some eyes. The Commanders and head coach Dan Quinn have been using him as a wide receiver in Kliff Kingsbury's offense, and he is also returning kicks.
It's easy to see why using him on kicks makes sense, as he has electric speed once he gets out in the open field, something that Virginia Tech fans saw last season.
