Washington Commanders

Coach Dan Quinn said the jury is out on whether starting quarterback Jayden Daniels will play Saturday. He will almost certainly sit out Washington’s final preseason game against Baltimore.

The Commanders have had 15 players miss time, including many key contributors.

Treylon Burks used to hunt hogs. Now he’s aiming for a different type of game with the Commanders.

“He’s thrown an incredible training camp,” head coach Dan Quinn said. “His accuracy, his command of it. A new system, you wouldn’t feel like that for him."

“I’m a competitor. I belong,” defensive lineman Ricky Barber said at his locker after the preseason debut. “I want to be part of the team.”

Here is our projection of the opening day roster as we enter the final two weeks of training camp.

Mariota sprained his MCL in the preseason game against the Dolphins and will miss several weeks. The injury should take him out the remainder of the preseason, and his return date is unknown.

Backup quarterback Marcus Mariota left early with an injury, but the rest of Washington’s 20-7 preseason win over the Dolphins was largely uneventful.

What’s one more challenge for the renaissance man? Yankoff is all in as a tight end.

“My sole personal focus is on the Commanders football,” Daniels said in a social media post.

Daniels’ decision stems from the school’s decision to allow cornerback D.J. Pickett to wear a No. 5 jersey.

Most of quarterback Jayden Daniels’ sharpness through training camp carried over against the Dolphins’ first-string defense.

Here are the biggest storylines to watch over the next three days, and how the Commanders are approaching this critical period.

“This is significant for us,” head coach Dan Quinn said of Laremy Tunsil’s injury.

As D.C. unveils plans for the Commanders’ new stadium, some experts worry about housing and transit proposals.

Tunsil is expected to miss an extended period with a torn triceps muscle, according to multiple reports.

“We’ll start working him in slowly,” coach Dan Quinn said of Diggs. “Start building up with some of the reps that he’s comfortable with, and then we’ll start adding from there.”

The four-time Pro Bowler doesn’t come without headlines. Just ask the Vikings, or the Bills, or the Texans, or the Patriots. But he also comes with production.

Washington has long been linked to Diggs this offseason. The Maryland native played for New England in 2025, helping the Patriots make a run to the Super Bowl.
