The Commanders really wanted a serious starting QB.
In fact the Washington Commanders were desperate enough that they were looking just about everywhere to find a new quarterback this off-season. In the end the Commanders settled for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz.
The Commanders wanted a solid QB so bad that reportedly considered reaching out to another former Colts quarterback, Andrew Luck. They didn’t have to go down that road after they figured out a way to settle for Wentz.

Washington might have jumped the gun on Wentz, because after they landed him, a lot more QB’s became available.
Of course Andrew Luck isn’t coming out of retirement anytime soon, especially not a for a team called the Commanders.
