Washington Commanders
he Washington Commanders preseason wouldn’t be complete without a Battle of the Beltway game against the Baltimore Ravens. This is Week 3 and that means we’re going to get a long look at the middle to bottom of the roster. Jayden Daniels played one series last week, before stepping aside for the QB3 battle between Josh Johnson and Sam Hartman. Washington has several positions that could still have a final spot unsettled going into this game including wide receiver. Who steps up to earn their place on the team(or the practice squad)?

Washington continues to upgrade its roster, Jayden Daniels’s next steps as a QB and a seventh-round RB makes an impression.
There’s an unquestioned belief in the Commanders’ facility that the talent has, for the second consecutive offseason, been upgraded in a huge way.
[T]he improvement is noticeable on the line of scrimmage. On offense, the tackle position has been overhauled, with Laremy Tunsil, at 31, looking like the Pro Bowler he’s always been, and first-rounder Josh Conerly Jr. (who was seen by Washington as...

The Commanders play their final preseason game at home today at noon. There’s little expectation of any starters playing in the game outside of, perhaps, rookie Trey Amos, who missed the Bengals game on Monday night with tight hamstring, and perhaps a running back or two. For a small number of players, today’s game could be their final appearance on an NFL field.
There have been several roster changes in the five days since the last update published by Hogs Haven. With the final preseason game just hours away, it seemed like a good time...

Two NFC East teams are playing their final game of the preseason. First up is the Philadelphia Eagles visiting the New York Jets. The Eagles don’t play starters in the the preseason, so next guys up! The Dallas Cowboys also have a game, and they’re hosting the Atlanta Falcons. Where will Micah Parsons be?

The Washington Commanders have made several trades under second-year GM Adam Peters, and they were down to five picks in next year’s draft after only having five in this year’s. Washington added veteran CB Marshon Lattimore at the trade deadline last season, and LT Laremy Tunsil and WR Deebo Samuel during the offseason. We’ve got a long way to go until next year’s draft, and a whole season to play, but Peters is always looking to the future.
Brian Robinson has been on the trade block for at least a week, and didn’t play in the Commanders’ Monday Night Football...

‘Update: Washington is paying some of Robinson’s $3.4 million salary to facilitate the trade
The Washington Commanders have reportedly traded RB Brian Robinson to the San Francisco 49ers for a sixth-round pick. Robinson was the team’s starter after he returned from being shot during a carjacking during training camp in his rookie season three years ago. Robinson has dealt with injuries every season, but continued to win the starting job until this year.
Washington drafted Jacory “Bill” Croskey Merritt in the 7th round, and has Austin Ekeler, Chris Rodriguez Jr, and Jeremy McNichols coming back from last season. Reports came...

It’s time for a roster contest!
Here’s the deal. I’ll list the Commanders’ late round draft picks (everyone taken after the 4th round) and several UDFA players who were in college a few months ago along with a select group of veteran players who are on the roster bubble.
You predict which ones will make the team or practice squad, and which ones won’t.
It’s that simple.
*Note: I first ran this competition annually from 2017 to 2019. With the coming of COVID-era football in 2020, with its smaller rosters and the return of multiple roster cutdown dates, the...

Against the Patriots, he had a rep with chip help where he almost sprinted outside to the rusher instead of using the chip to help cut off the speed rush and giving himself extra time to get set. Against the Bengals, he corrected that mistake.
Here we can see a side by side comparison of Conerly blocking with chip help. The play on the left of the clip is against the Patriots in the preseason opener, the play on the right comes from...

JP Finlay, co-host of 106.7 the Fan’s BMitch & Finlay and Washington Commanders beat report for NBC Sports and Monumental Sports Network, joined the latest episode of Trap or Dive. As the Commanders’ training camp comes to a close, the optimism surrounding the state of the team remains high, and it should. Finlay, who covered every day of practice since camp started, thinks that the floor for Washington remains at ten wins this season. It’s a high floor, but it doesn’t make it any less attainable as Jayden Daniels’ ascension continues. Daniels was Finlay’s most impressive player in camp. That...

There was a bit more to see from starters and likely major contributors in the Commanders’ second preseason game. But Dan Quinn kept the emphasis on evaluating players destined for the depth ranks and roster hopefuls. Much of the playing time on Monday night was devoted to players who are unlikely to play on offense or defense for the Commanders this season. And many of the players who took snaps will be on other teams’ practice squads or playing in the UFL.
But enough about them. This article is about highlighting players who took advantage of the MNF spotlight to...
