The Washington Commanders have a lot of primetime games this season, including one in the preseason! Tonight’s Monday Night Football game features Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals coming to Northwest Stadium to face Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders. This will be the first game the two former LSU QBs have played against each other in the NFL, but they are expected to only see a few series before letting the backups take over. Washington is expected to play their starters for two series, and that will be the only live reps they get before Week 1’s home game...
The Commanders play the first of two home preseason games tonight at 8 pm. Dan Quinn has confirmed that Jayden Daniels and most of the current starters will play for at least part of the first quarter, though he also gave a fairly long list of players would be out due to injury management.
There have been a surprising number of roster changes in the ten days since the last update published by Hogs Haven. With the second preseason game just hours away, it seemed like a good time to catch up on those changes....

The Washington Commanders have activated wide receiver Terry Mclaurin off the Physically Unable to Perform list, marking the next step toward him being ready to return to the field.
McLaurin will go through a ramp-up process to get ready for his debut. He was ruled out of participation for the Monday Night Football preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
“We’ve got a real process in our return to play that we believe in,” Quinn said. “We know it works, and we’ll hit...
After a rough opener, the Commanders will look to right the ship in Week 2 at home versus the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football. The hope for Washington fans is that the participation of more starters this week will make for a more pleasurable viewing experience. It will be great to see Jayden Daniels take the field for the first time in 2025, but there are plenty of other players to keep your eye on Monday night.
The special teams underperformed in Week 1, but since I can’t list that many players, I’m going to use...

It’s Week 2 of the preseason, and we’ve got a lot of football to watch today! There were two games yesterday, and there’s a full slate of games today. It’s like a Sunday in August! The NFL has five 1 p.m. ET games, and a lone 4 o’clock game. The three other NFC East teams play today, with the Washington Commanders getting the Monday Night Football game, hosting the Cincinnati Bengals.

With preseason action in full swing across the NFL, the Washington Commanders have officially opened the doors in Ashburn with expectations a bit more lofty after an NFC Championship appearance propelled by the 2024 Offensive Rookie of the Year, QB Jayden Daniels.
Today, we analyze the three most important positional battles for Washington this summer as the regular season is right around the corner.
The Commanders were very fortunate in the second round of this past NFL Draft when Ole Miss CB Trey Amos fell into their lap with the 61st overall...
Dan Quinn spoke to reporters after today’s practice. His usual pre-practice presser was pushed back, and the team announced that WR Terry McLaurin(ankle) has been activated from the Active/PUP list. McLaurin wasn’t at practice today, and he won’t play in the team’s Monday Night Football game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Quinn said that he will ramp up as he returns to play, just like several other players that were ruled out have been. McLaurin is still seeking a new deal, but can now practice with the team when he is cleared for full participation.
Jayden Daniels and the other starters...
Much has been made of the Commanders receiving options being below-average (especially with Mclaurin not practicing this summer), however that needs to be viewed in context of Kliff Kingsbury’s offense.
Is it more important to have players who fit the scheme, or to build your scheme around the players you have?
This is the million-dollar question – and although I don’t know if I’ll be able to draw a concrete conclusion here either way, it will hopefully prompt some good discussion.
Kingsbury’s hybrid Air Raid system is challenging...
