The Washington Commanders training camp rolls on for Day 11 in Ashburn, VA. Today will be a little different, with the Miami Dolphins in town for a joint practice Wednesday morning and the first preseason game on Friday night.
Head coach Dan Quinn spoke to reporters before the start of Wednesday’s practice. Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels and linebacker Leo Chenal also held Q&As after practice, while other players were interviewed on the field.
Quinn outlined the structure of the joint practice,
which would entail relatively short periods with an emphasis on 1-on-1s, red-zone work, 7-on-7s, team drills, including drive-the-ball work, two-minute drills and you-call-it segments. He didn’t provide much information on who would play in Friday’s preseason contest against the Dolphins, preferring to hold that information until game day. It’s safe to say, though, that first-team guys who work a ton in the joint practices probably won’t play in the game.
Daniels had an excellent practice by all accounts, showing the pinpoint accuracy that has become commonplace during this training camp.
