The Washington Commanders are inching closer to final roster cuts, and there are still several players trying to prove they deserve a spot. Here are three standouts from the past week.
### **RB Demetric Felton**
The Commanders have a tough decision to make at the running back position, and players like Felton aren't making things easy for them. The running back was a key part of the Gold team's offense during Tuesday's scrimmage, as he showed off his skill as both a pass-catcher and runner.
Felton's day got started when the Gold team faced a fourth down on its second drive. Felton connected with Sam Hartman on a deep pass downfield that helped put the group in scoring position. Two plays later, Felton scored a touchdown that was negated because of a holding call, but he showed off quickness and vision to get in the end zone on the play.
As it stands now, Felton faces a long road toward making the roster, as he was listed as seventh on the team's unofficial depth chart. However, the starters are expected to play limited snaps against the Bengals, which means there will be more opportunities for Felton to at least show he can be a practice squad player during the regular season.
