Washington Commanders’ assistant general manager Lance Newmark was named by Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated as a potential future NFL general manager. It is the second straight year he has made this list.
Breer collects the names of the hottest candidates by querying executives and scouts from all over the league. This year, he included 26 staffers, about half of whom are currently serving as assistant general managers.
Newmark was not in the top tier, which Breer labels “on the doorstep” of a top spot. The Commanders have regressed significantly from 2024, and the reputations of virtually everyone associated with the club have taken a corresponding hit.
