Preseason or not, out of market vibes hit different
My phone has been blowing up
Today at the gym 3 different people approached me. One I’d never spoken to. He’s seen me in Skins gear & he wanted to say “looks like you’ve got a QB, a new owner & I’m happy for you guys” pic.twitter.com/uOFOxHnCUn

Terry McLaurin is dealing with a toe sprain, source confirmed. He underwent an MRI today and the scans showed no major damage. There is optimism he can be ready for Week 1 (Sept. 10).

Nick Gates set the tone last night and played an awesome game. Think it is safe to say the OC1 job is a wrap in Washington. pic.twitter.com/nPxTjuRfGc

Commanders center Nick Gates is a caveman in the best sense of the word. Wait for the headbutt at the end. pic.twitter.com/4hLc4WCh0g

I’m eating my words. Dyami Brown is becoming more than a one trick player. He is still a threat downfield, but has really done well with shorter and intermediate routes in recent weeks.
— Ken Johannesen (@BurgundyBurner) August 22, 2023
I don’t think it would be a reach to call Dyami WR 3 at this point. Especially with Howell relationship.

Jahan Dotson is outstanding.
Going to be a star. His routes are sensational. His hands are tremendous. He can do everything well. What a home run draft pick that was by this front office. Possibly their best decisions since taking over. #Commanders

If Brock Purdy did this, it would break the internet.
The Howell criticism has been excessive this offseason. https://t.co/LrPPJQszDS

You see this and think “Jahan Dotson to the moon”
I see this and think, “Brian Robinson won’t be in on many pass plays with protection like that”
Another Antonio Gibson win ✅pic.twitter.com/pKN1wyPvfJ

I see this tweet and think did you watch the full game? I do think gibson will be used but the full tape doesn’t show what ur trying to display in one play. Brian Robinson Jr was used more and he had good reps in Pass pro pic.twitter.com/Uzy5rhlCbd

I can’t wait until EB unleashes the rest of the playbook in the regular season. All of these calls so far this preseason have been fairly basic concepts that utilize the main reads asked of the QB in this system. Howell has looked really good with them, in my opinion. https://t.co/odC71PNWHw pic.twitter.com/sYJlzGiyK0

Has Quan Martin had the chance yet to go and likes some tweets? He laughed.

Seahawks’ first-round pick Jaxon Smith-Njigba is undergoing wrist surgery today in Philadelphia, but still could have a chance to be ready for the start of the regular season, per sources. Surgery will determine how long he will miss. He hurt his wrist Saturday night vs. Dallas.

Update: Executives don’t believe Jonathan Taylor will net the #Colts a 1st round pick/package that is worth that much, via @AlbertBreer
Breer asked multiple execs about how much Taylor is worth in a trade with the new contract involved:

AFC exec: 3rd… pic.twitter.com/ubMK1ngQCV— Dov Kleiman (@NFL_DovKleiman) August 22, 2023
