Patterson is way better than Barber —there’s no reason we need to keep #25. If we need him later, he’ll be available

— WASHINGTON FOOTBALL (@HogsHaven) August 21, 2021

Prediction: Patterson will be left off the 53 to make room for Sammis Reyes, then signed to the 53 a few days later when Reyes heads to IR.

Now Jaret Patterson is returning kick offs for big gains. If he can do this, just put him on the final roster now to be quite honest. pic.twitter.com/nVqYN6ieKd

Jaret Patterson setting up the LB here. Presses front side, gets LB to commit and then cuts it back. This is very good stuff. pic.twitter.com/26J2XjHe8u

Chase Young watching his childhood friend Jaret Patterson punch it in for 6 ❤️

Love to see it.

I put Jaret Patterson in my 53-player roster projection this week. I see no reason to change that call.

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) August 21, 2021

So Jaret Patterson now over two preseason games has excelled as a ball carrier, pass catcher & kickoff returner. I'm not against Peyton Barber making #WFT's season-opening 53-man roster. But Patterson has to be on it too.

Jaret Patterson took off his cleats and gave them to his high school coach after the game. ♥️ #WashingtonFootball

Dyami Brown on Jaret Patterson: “I love that guy. I tell him every time ‘you’re the one; you’re special.’ He runs the ball hard.”

— John Keim (@john_keim) August 21, 2021

Rivera calls Jaret Patterson "explosive" and "dynamic," and says his one of those players unafraid of the spotlight. Says they have a role in mind for him.

Jaret Patterson is no longer a feel good story about the hometown kid playing for the local team. This is a real thing. The kickoff return sealed it. He can play.

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) August 21, 2021

I also know this: The coaches like Barber; they fill different roles. They can keep 4. Means one less OL or perhaps only 10 DBs instead of 11.

— John Keim (@john_keim) August 21, 2021

Notable, at least to me, that Antonio Gibson has carried the ball on 3rd & 1 and now 4th & 1. That was Peyton Barber's role last year

AGG makes every catch look difficult. He fights the ball.

— Paul Williams (@FiftyGutBlog) August 21, 2021

Ron sounds quite pleased with AGG tonight. Noted that he “plucked” the two pointer out of the air after not doing so in NE last week and was overall more aggressive when the ball came his way

Did Mike Silver really ask Heinicke how many time would he hear “ball security” this coming week???

— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 21, 2021

#WashingtonFootballTeam has totaled just five accepted penalties over two preseason games. And it's not like officials just haven't been calling anything, because Pats & Bengals combined for 18 accepted penalties over those two games. It's almost like #WFT is a well-coached team.

— Al Galdi (@AlGaldi) August 21, 2021

Two games in a row we’ve won the penalty battle. It’s an example of how disciplined this team is. Small sample size but it matters.

I don't know, man. It's preseason. It's 8 pm on a Friday. Landover is in the middle of nowhere. It's the Cincinnati Bengals.

I don't understand why thousands of people would come to this. And I really like football.

Wright also mentions they will bring the band back. In case anybody was wondering.
