Commanders Madden WR Ratings: Where's Rookie Jahan Dotson?

The rookie receiver gets his first Madden rating.

Every rookie in the NFL goes through a number of milestones in their first season. From the combine, to the draft, the first practice and actually playing for the first time, there are a number of "Welcome to the NFL" moments.

For Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson, moving from playing at Penn State, where all his time is scheduled around his football schedule, to Washington has been an adjustment. He has more time to travel and the extra flexibility has allowed the first-year player to visit his parents in Pennsylvania.

"It was kind of weird," Dotson said. "I called my best friend and said, 'I'm not really too nervous, even though it's my first day in the NFL.' I've been playing football for so long, so it felt like I was back on Clipper Field again."

Another one of those moments came this week when Dotson received his first Madden rating.

Dotson, the 16th overall pick in the draft, scored a 75 overall out of 99, which is just three points shy of the top rookie receiver ... Jameson Williams of the Detroit Lions.
