Washington Commanders tight end Armani Rogers was one of the feel-good stories of the summer. The undrafted former college quarterback transitioned to tight end at East-West Shrine Bowl and put himself on the radar of NFL teams.
The Commanders knew about Rogers back when he was a freshman quarterback at UNLV, something offensive coordinator Scott Turner recently indicated. Turner, too, played quarterback at UNLV. Former Panthers GM and current Washington executive Marty Hurney has also been following Rogers for years, according to senior director of player personnel Eric Stokes.
