The Washington Commanders will soon host another cornerback on a top-30 visit. According to Justin Melo of The Draft Network, Washington will host Notre Dame cornerback Cam Hart on a pre-draft visit.

Hart, like Elijah Jones of Boston College, who will also visit Washington, has some high-level traits. While neither are first-round prospects, both are long, athletic corners, something Washington head coach Dan Quinn has always liked.

Hart is 6-foot-3, 202 pounds, and ran the 40 in 4.5 seconds at the 2024 NFL combine. One game that will stand out to evaluators is Notre Dame’s game against Ohio State, where he matched up with Marvin Harrison Jr. and more than held his own. Harrison caught three passes for 32 yards on that day.

Quinn and defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. have an outstanding history of developing defensive backs, with DaRon Bland and Trevon Diggs being the most recent examples. It’s clear the Commanders are looking for help at cornerback in the draft and believe they can find one in the third round or later.
