All 32 NFL teams will hold a local pro day for NFL prospects who are either from the surrounding area or played college football in the area. The Washington Commanders are expected to host their local pro day sometime next week, two weeks before the 2025 NFL draft.
While we don't have a complete list of players expected to attend, we know one name. According to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network, Syracuse linebacker Marlowe Wax will attend Washington's local pro day. In addition to the Commanders' local pro day, Wax will also participate in local pro days for the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills.

Wax played five seasons at Syracuse, appearing in 57 career games, recording 338 tackles, including 44 for loss, 21 sacks and two interceptions. The 6-foot-0, 227-pound Wax battled a lower body injury for much of his final season for the Orange, but did his best to play through the injury. While Wax did not earn an invite to the 2025 NFL combine, he did participate in Syracuse's pro day, where he impressed NFL scouts.

Judging by three teams hosting him for a local pro day, there is intrigue with Wax. He's athletic with excellent instincts, and has played a lot of college football, which is important to Washington general manager Adam Peters.
Wax is a native of Baltimore, having played high school football at Mount St. Joseph.
