Intriguing 2026 NFL Draft prospect reveals private workout with Commanders, which could shake up position group even more
The Washington Commanders traveled for a private workout with one 2026 NFL Draft prospect who could be a day-three selection that shakes up the RB room even more this offseason.
The Washington Commanders are looking to reload in the 2026 NFL Draft after many changes during free agency.
The roster looks completely different at certain positions, especially the RB room, after adding Rachaad White and Jerome Ford. Washington could still make another change by drafting a RB as high as No. 7 overall with Jeremiyah Love, or with one of their day-three picks, which they have four of.
They’ve been doing their homework on RB prospects, including an upcoming road trip to Clemson to see an intriguing Adam Randall.

Bill Croskey-Merritt is the only RB under contract after the season, so they need a long-term answer in the RB room moving forward. The Washington Commanders also need to find value on day three of the NFL Draft, so their upcoming trip to see Randall could be very important.
Randall told Ashby Mixon with The Clemson Insider that the Commanders are coming down for a private workout and have shown him interest throughout the process.
“I’ve been to New England, going to Houston this upcoming week, and the Commanders are coming down to have a workout with me, so I’ve been getting a lot of general buzz, but those are the three teams that I feel like I’ve had some good connections with.”

The Commanders are clearly interested in what they see in Randall, and it’s easy to see why after his rise this offseason.
Why Adam Randall is a rising RB prospect
Randall has had an interesting road to the NFL after switching from WR to RB in his final season, and he still put up productive numbers. He finished his only season as a RB with 809 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground, and looks to fit best as an outside zone runner, which the Washington Commanders will run under David Blough.
He put up the most bench reps among all RBs at the NFL Scouting Combine with 26, and his strength shows in his runs with his physical running style. Randall is a bigger back at 6-3, 213 pounds, and his vision is better than expected with his rawness at the position.
His WR background makes him a threat as a route runner from the backfield as well, and he’s great in pass protection. The A to Z Sports 2026 NFL mock draft simulator currently has him going at No. 200 overall in the draft, so the Commanders should take him with their No. 187 overall pick if they want him.
Randall has the athletic ability that Adam Peters loves, and could be a day-three steal who wins a roster spot over Jerome Ford and Jeremy McNichols.
