What to expect from Sonny Styles, Commanders draft class in 2026 season
The Washington Commanders’ NFL draft class has been working within the organization for months now. The selections have immersed themselves in the organizational culture, strength and conditioning programs and offensive/defensive systems they’ll be asked to execute starting Sept. 13 against the Philadelphia Eagles. We’ve learned a ton about how they’re fitting in, with far […]

It’s an annual tradition at Hogs Haven for writers and contributors to make season predictions between the end of preseason and Week 1 — and then we (usually) publish an article at the end of the season to laugh at ourselves for getting so many things wrong. It’s also an annual tradition for HH readers […]
Washington’s front seven could be backbone of the 2026 Commanders
Washington’s defense has been the Commanders’ demise in Dan Quinn’s tenure two years in, but the 2026 unit should bring fans a different level of optimism. The front seven especially has a chance to be the backbone of the team, and according to Commanders staff and reporters at practice, injured players are beginning to return […]

How Commanders could operate with seven receivers on 53-man roster
The Commanders chose to keep seven receivers on their initial 53-man roster. That’s a bit higher than the normal five or six. Washington was among five teams to keep seven receivers on its initial 53-man roster, with every organization having slightly different reasons for retaining that number. Sometimes its a placeholder until other […]
Will Adam Peters UDFA success alter Washington Commanders trajectory?
Recently, long-time sports writer Mike Tanier wrote a response to a question in his mailbag article attempting to validate the idea the Washington Commanders could be the “worst team in the league” this year. Part of his logic included the idea Adam Peters “should have stockpiled late-round picks and UDFAs and given the ones they […]
Commanders roster: Jayden Daniels, pass rush among Washington strengths
The Commanders training camp and preseason took an odd trajectory. Optimism pervaded through everything done at the beginning, even when Nick Allegretti suffered a calf injury and Trey Amos wasn’t practicing, and it became unavoidable that Washington needed a No. 2 receiver. It crescendoed a few weeks later when Stefon Diggs got signed and held […]

Dan Quinn gives injury updates and talks about leadership
The Washington Commanders were in Ashburn today for the last practice of the week and also the first padded practice of the regular season. Dan Quinn gave some positive injury updates on Bill Croskey-Merritt (knee) and K’Lavon Chaisson (knee) who both participated today. Odafe Oweh (calf) will be back at practice next week, but Quinn […]
How Stefon Diggs ‘fire’ has helped improve Washington Commanders
The Commanders needed a solid No. 2 receiver entering training camp to fortify the position group and make it complete. That was clear and evident early on, with an experienced veteran opposite Terry McLaurin who could allow rookie Antonio Williams to develop at a proper place. Washington was patient in the marketplace but maintained […]

What Commanders OL Nick Allegretti said about rehab, return to lineup
Nick Allegretti has been the subject of more Commanders conversation than offensive linemen typically generate. A nagging calf strain that stole most of his training camp, a vital period for the presumptive starting center after playing guard most of his NFL career. Washington’s backup plans proved faulty, with Julian Good-Jones struggling to provide stability […]
Washington Commanders injury news: Odafe Oweh, K’Lavon Chaisson sidelined

The preseason schedule is complete, and NFL teams trimmed their rosters to 53 players on Sunday afternoon. Both rookies and veterans alike were released, with different rules applying for each.

The initial Commanders 53-man roster has been set. Washington had to make a series of cuts before Sunday’s 6 p.m. ET deadline to do so, and formally announced those transactions shortly after.
