David Blough Fantasy Stats

The NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says that new Washington Commanders offensive coordinator David Blough's offense should suit running back Rachaad White well in 2026. White's name came up a few times during Garafolo's visit to the Commanders' mandatory minicamp on Wednesday. The 27-year-old signed a one-year deal with Washington back in March, and although second-year back Jacory Croskey-Merritt is the obvious choice to lead the team's backfield after he led the team in rushing in his rookie campaign in 2025, White will have his chance to compete for a bigger role that he had behind Bucky Irving in Tampa Bay over the last couple of seasons. In his four years with the Bucs, White averaged 3.9 yards per carry and had 2,656 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns, adding 205 receptions for 1,450 yards and 11 receiving TDs. Head coach Dan Quinn has been impressed with White's abilities as a pass-catcher during offseason practices, something that Croskey-Merritt needs to work on. At the very least, White will be an RB3/flex sleeper in PPR leagues, with the potential for an even bigger role if JCM takes a step back in Year 2.

The Athletic's Nicki Jhabvala writes that "no one sounds happier" about new offensive coordinator David Blough's scheme than Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin. In his seven seasons in Washington, McLaurin has played for three other offensive coordinators with 13 starting quarterbacks. And in many of those circumstances, there have been plenty of questions as to why McLaurin wasn't involved more. But in Blough's offense, the 30-year-old said he'll "be used all over." "I think the multitude of formations and route combinations is going to give all of us flexibility to move around the formation, keep the defense on their toes, and have a lot of routes that may look similar at the stem but different at the top," McLaurin said last week. The former third-rounder in 2019 out of Ohio State couldn't get off the ground in 2025 due to injuries to both himself and QB Jayden Daniels, and he finished with career lows across the board in catches (38), yards (582), and touchdowns (three) in just 10 starts. Scary Terry could make for a great value pick for fantasy managers in 2026, though, with WR2 upside in a new scheme as he looks to bounce back in his eighth year in the NFL.

The Athletic's Nicki Jhabvala reports that former NFL quarterback David Blough is taking over as the Washington Commanders' offensive coordinator. Blough was a practice-squad QB for the Detroit Lions just two years ago, but he quickly transitioned to coaching as Washington's assistant quarterbacks coach and helped fill in when QBs coach Tavita Pritchard left for Stanford. Blough is a quick riser and a bright offensive talent, but he'll have big shoes to fill in his new role in D.C. after Kliff Kingsbury mutually agreed to part ways with the organization to pursue another head-coaching job. He has worked closely with young QB Jayden Daniels and will need to continue to develop his relationship with him as Daniels heads into his third NFL season. During his playing career, Blough played for Kingsbury, Bears head coach Ben Johnson, and Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell.

The Detroit Lions are kicking off their search for a new offensive coordinator with former Lions quarterback David Blough, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Blough worked as the assistant quarterbacks coach for the Washington Commanders in 2025, but he served as the QBs coach after Tavita Pritchard left to become the head coach at Stanford. Detroit let go of Johnny Morton as their offensive coordinator after just one season in the role. Blough last played in the NFL in 2023 and began his coaching career with Washington in 2024. The 30-year-old former undrafted rookie out of Purdue played in just four seasons in the NFL with Detroit and Arizona and completed 57% of his passes for 1,435 yards, six touchdowns, and nine interceptions. The Lions have high expectations for their high-scoring offense after scoring 28.3 points per game in 2025, the fifth-most in the NFL.

The Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets have requested to interview Washington Commanders assistant David Blough for their vacant quarterback coach position, while the Chicago Bears are seeking to interview him for their pass game coordinator role. Blough, a five-year NFL quarterback, was on the Detroit Lions practice squad in 2023 before joining the coaching ranks in Washington as the assistant quarterbacks coach. After the breakout rookie campaign from Jayden Daniels, it's no surprise he is drawing interest around the NFL for franchises building new staffs. The 29-year-old could make his way up the coaching ladder in short order if he excels with a potential promotion in 2025.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough rallied the team to an 18-17 comeback victory against the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday. Blough completed 11-for-22 pass attempts with 93 yards and one touchdown while rushing for another score. While under pressure and with eight minutes remaining in the third quarter, Blough started the come-from-behind victory by heaving a long TD pass to Davion Davis. With Kyler Murray out for the foreseeable future, the Cardinals are looking for someone to step up at quarterback. A win like this could put Blough in a position to be the team's starter for their upcoming Week 1 matchup vs. the Washington Commanders.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough could have a chance to compete with Colt McCoy for the backup job this year. And with Kyler Murray (knee) not expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, there's a chance that Blough could see some starts early in the year if he were to beat McCoy out. McCoy is also recovering from an undisclosed surgery this offseason. It's unlikely the Cardinals would add another veteran signal-caller, but they could add a young player at QB in this month's draft. Blough made two starts late last year and went 38-for-58 with 402 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. The 27-year-old didn't look terrible, but he's also gone 0-7 in his career as a starter in the NFL.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough has re-signed with the organization. Blough spent time with three different organizations last season. However, he ended the season with the Cardinals and even made two starts for the team. He completed 38-of-58 passes for 402 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in those two starts. Blough has made a total of nine appearances in his four seasons in the league. The 27-year-old is expected to compete for a spot on the 53-man roster in training camp.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough completed 14 of his 18 passing attempts for 180 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in the blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Blough was eventually replaced by Trace McSorley, who completed six of his nine attempts for 29 yards and an interception. Ultimately, neither Arizona quarterback will be on the fantasy radar to start next season, as Arizona will likely roll with Colt McCoy or another backup quarterback if Kyler Murray (torn ACL) isn't ready for Week 1 of the 2023 season.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough will start in Week 18 against the San Francisco 49ers. The veteran quarterback made his first start of the year against the Atlanta Falcons last week. He completed 60% of his pass attempts for 222 yards and a touchdown last week and scored 13.6 fantasy points. With Kyler Murray (knee) and Colt McCoy (concussion) unable to play, Blough will make his second consecutive start. However, fantasy players have no reason to add the veteran quarterback to their roster. The 49ers have an elite defense, while the quarterback will be without star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (knee).
