The Washington Commanders are on the field again for the next round of OTAs. Terry McLaurin continues to hold out as he seeks a new contract. Daron Payne is here and participating in individual drills, but not team drills. Chase Young is also here after rehabbing in Colorado during last week’s practices.
Good morning:
Back at it for @Commanders OTAs Week 2!

Arguably the @Commanders’ two most important LBs—Holcomb and Davis—getting work in early.

Funny moment here - RB drills and they try to recruit Curtis Samuel to work with the group. “Come on Curt.” Impressive quicks from rookie B Rob too pic.twitter.com/ZYhmI1FBmE

Curtis Samuel:

Daron Payne:
Daron Payne is back on the side field as 11-on-11 work begins. No scene was made or anything and he has nothing to prove on June 1
— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) June 1, 2022
Team drills have begun.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) June 1, 2022
Coaches mixing and matching lineups per usual. Montez Sweat with the 1s.
Daron Payne not doing team drills at this point, as was the case last week. Did unit drills earlier. Now individual work on the side field. He jogged there.
Benjamin St-Juste:
Bringing back the threads I used to do for training camp. 11 on 11s now: Benjamin St-Juste in the slot, which is new. Played ahead of Danny Johnson on the first few snaps.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) June 1, 2022
Montez Sweat in action:
On the first pass play of team drills, Montez Sweat beat his man and got in Wentz’s face before the QB dumped it off to Hodges. Nice to see the DE back in action
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) June 1, 2022
Wentz —-> Dotson TD:
Carson Wentz just hit Jahan Dotson on a sick TD over the middle during 9-on-9s. Fit it in perfectly between two defenders
— Ethan Cadeaux (@Ethan_Cadeaux) June 1, 2022
Phidarian Mathis:
Phidarian Mathis just broke thru the #Commanders backup OL & was held by two players who were beat. Impressive quickness off LOS.
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) June 1, 2022
Sam Howell:
Sam Howell seem (so far) good at communicating motions & shifts & then finding the underneath crossed as things clear out.Not pure check downs from limited reps. #Commanders
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) June 1, 2022
Cole Turner:
Sam Howell & Taylor Heinicke each connected with Cole Turner, the rookie TE from Nevada, who certainly stands out frame wise. After one of the catches, new TE coach Juan Castillo was working with Turner hard for a while but not sure what about.
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) June 1, 2022
Taylor Heinicke:
Taylor Heinicke was nearly picked off along sideline by Danny Johnson. To say Heinicke has struggled a bit today would be fair. #Commanders
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) June 1, 2022
Chase Young:
Chase Young just walked out to the practice field in street clothes. Still recovering from his knee injury, but it’s nice to see him out here supporting his teammates

Jahan Dotson hype:
Jahan Dotson is getting a lot of action today and making some really nice plays
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) June 1, 2022
Kendall Fuller INT:
Kendall Fuller gets the first pick of the day, and as is tradition, the entire defense sprints down the field to celebrate
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) June 1, 2022
Wentz was picked off by Kendall Fuller. #Commanders
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) June 1, 2022
Blitz drills:
It was blitz day today and the reserve units have had their way. Sam Howell would have gotten blasted by two defenders just now. Earlier, Saahdiq Charles got steamrolled
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) June 1, 2022
William Jackson III:
William Jackson nearly had an interception after a pass to Dyami Brown was batted in the air, but Dyami made the extra effort to knock the ball away
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) June 1, 2022
Notes:
Jahan Dotson is my second-session-of-OTAs-MVP winner for the way he stood out today. I'm sure he'll win much better awards, but at least he's got that one https://t.co/dGz281jMZL

Notes:
It's only the first practice, but Carson Wentz did throw a pick six that was returned 40 yards into the wrong end zone. Read @Snide_Remarks on Day 1: https://t.co/9A3oQsiPaT
