The Washington Commanders kick off the 2026 season today against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. Washington is looking for its second straight win over the Eagles in Philadelphia, after winning the 2025 regular-season finale in January.
The Commanders enter the 2026 season with much lower expectations than the Eagles. Many considered Washington a potential playoff team before the season, but when left tackle Laremy Tunsil tore his triceps on Aug. 8, those vibes shifted. A rough joint practice against the Ravens, without three starting offensive linemen, led many on the outside to declare the season over before it started.
Both the Commanders (David Blough) and Eagles (Sean Mannion) have new offensive coordinators in 2026. The
biggest difference is that Washington also has a new defensive coordinator (Daronte Jones).
