Five Washington Commanders players key to beating New York Giants
Jayden Daniels is back. The Commanders quarterback will return from a two-game absence wearing a brace that should protect his left elbow from yet another dislocation, with the last incident coming in Week 2. The Commanders have worked to fit the brace just right, to provide the proper protection and non-throwing-arm function to perform […]

Commanders fans brace for rough stretch after London – poll results
The emotional whiplash of following the Washington Commanders football team hasn’t relented in the first quarter of the season. Just when the Week 3 gritty home upset win against Seattle appeared to stabilize the ship and reignite optimism, a dreary, injury-filled and mistake-prone Sunday game in London last week against Daniel Jones and the Colts […]
NFL predictions: Jayden Daniels has successful return as Commanders host Giants
It’s Week 5 and the Washington Commanders are returning home after playing in London. The loss to the Colts put them at 1-3 for the season, and in must-win territory for their third division game in the first five games. The Giants are coming to town and they have lone control of first place in […]
Commanders NFL draft pick Kaytron Allen claimed off waivers by Dolphins
The Commanders waived sixth-round running back Kaytron Allen on Thursday, and then GM Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn spent some of their Friday public appearances saying they liked him and hoped to sign him the practice squad. That won’t be possible. The Miami Dolphins claimed him off waivers, the Dolphins announced on […]
Tyler’s Take — Adam Peters is on a bad trajectory as Washington’s general manager
Adam Peters’ hire as general manager of the Washington Commanders was met with much fanfare. He cut his teeth as a scout with the Patriots and Broncos, who both won the Lombardi Trophy while he was there, and learned as an executive under John Lynch in San Francisco. Fans felt that owner Josh Harris had […]
Commanders vs. Giants Friday injury report: Stefon Diggs out, Jayden Daniels will play
Commanders receiver Stefon Diggs (hamstring) has been ruled out of Sunday’s game against the New York Giants, head coach Dan Quinn said in his Friday press conference.

Dan Quinn: C Lucas Patrick is Commanders starter, Rachaad White’s toughness
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn held his Friday press conference in the early afternoon, his last public comments before Sunday’s home game against the New York Giants.

Commanders GM Adam Peters talks Kaytron Allen, Austin Ekeler, Nick Cross
General manager Adam Peters held his weekly Friday interview with The Junkies on 106.7-FM The Fan and clearly wasn’t ready to break news during it, as he did with Jayden Daniels a few weeks back. He did offer some insight on several decisions over the last week, including the Kaytron Allen cut, receivers Terry […]

Stats and Snaps – 2026 Week 4, Commanders vs Colts in London
A week after the Commanders pulled off the upset of the season, under leadership of backup QB Marcus Mariota, they were dealt another setback, when Mariota exited the London game with an injury in the first quarter.

Commanders Q+A: Five questions needing answers before Giants clash
It’s only Week 5, but the Commanders are encroaching on must-win territory. Yeah, that sounds a bit extreme for October, but Washington simply can’t afford to fall to 1-4 on the season and 0-3 within the NFC East so early. There are fair complaints to be made about the early-season schedule and a buzzard’s […]
Commanders vs. Giants Thursday injury report: Sam Cosmi approaching return
Commanders right guard Sam Cosmi didn’t make the trip to London for that Week 4 contest against the Indianapolis Colts. He was in the concussion protocol and ruled out early in the week while recovering from a vicious hit delivered by his own teammate, when running back Kaytron Allen inadvertently ran into him. Missing one […]
Commanders roster moves: Sixth-round NFL draft pick Kaytron Allen waived
The Commanders have waived rookie running back Kaytron Allen. That was a surprise move even with Jeremy McNichols practicing again (while on IR) and Austin Ekeler now on the roster, considering how much the Commanders liked the Penn State product. The team announced the transaction on Thursday afternoon. The Commanders drafted Allen […]
David Blough: “As an offense, we did not play winning football.”
The Washington Commanders are preparing to host the New York Giants and their coordinators spoke with reporters before Thursday’s practice.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels working to ‘embrace the brace’
Jayden Daniels was presented with a hypothetical situation during his Wednesday press conference. Let’s say it’s third-and-8, respected Athletic reporter David Aldridge said, and the first-down marker is in clear and unobstructed view. What do you do? How hard do you charge? Is the left elbow injury now protected by a big brace […]
Commanders vs. Giants Wednesday injury report: Stefon Diggs unavailable
The Commanders injury list is so long. Like, scroll down and check it out. Things are getting, well, extreme when it comes to player availability.

Dan Quinn: Marcus Mariota’s return expected sooner than later, no need for IR
The Washington Commanders are home from their international game in London against the Indianapolis Colts.

Dan Quinn has said they plan on having Jayden Daniels back as a full participant with the expectation he can start this week […]
