The Washington Commanders are on the field again for the first day of mandatory mini-camp. Daron Payne has rejoined the team for on field activities and team drills after not participating during OTAs while seeking a new contract. Terry McLaurin was the only player to skip practice today, and it's been reported he has returned to Florida to continue trading there while he also seems a new deal.

Randy Jordan:
Here’s Randy Jordan, after a rough pass pro rep from Brian Robinson, taking him off to the side and showing him the right technique - not every coach handles their players this way, and it’s an example of how Randy’s style has bridged the gap over multiple head coaches #HTTC pic.twitter.com/qosUHMP96s

One guy that’s caught my eye all offseason is rookie tight end Cole Turner. Look at this route and the hands pic.twitter.com/jsNPoEqY9c

Wentz to Dotson is gonna be fun. pic.twitter.com/37BAmwksyH
During 11s, Carson Wentz just found Jahan Dotson down the left sideline. Fit it in a tight window. The connection between the two continues to build

Darrick Forrest:
Daron Payne starts first team reps at DT. First time he's done that this offseason. John Bates just made a nice ome-handed catch from Wentz. D. Forrest at Buffalo nickel. #Commanders

Dyami Brown:
Also good to see Dyami Brown back out here at full speed after last week’s hit.
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) June 14, 2022
Dyami Brown with a nice catch in traffic during 9v9 drills. He left OTAs last week after a collision but seems totally fine

John Bates:
John Bates made an impressive one-handed grab to start team drills. I’m always impressed by how sneaky good Bates hands are

Cam Sims has had a really nice day with Carson Wentz. We hadn’t seen too much of them working together, but he’s hauled in some darts and maintained control
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) June 14, 2022
Charles Leno:
Charles Leno headed back to the facility early with a trainer. Looks like he got a little nicked up in 11 on 11s. Practice is over soon though so it could be nothing.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) June 14, 2022
LT Charles Leno walked off the field with a staffer a little before the end of practice.
— Sam Fortier (@Sam4TR) June 14, 2022
Leno got shaken up during the last rep of 11-on-11. It was tough to tell what he actually hurt, though it seemed like the lower body.
Ron Rivera spoke pre-practice, so he wont post.
Happy birthday Trai Turner:

Joey Slye:
One day after cutting K Brian Johnson, #Commanders K Joey Slye appeared to struggle on his kicks. He missed at least one and doinked one that went in.
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) June 14, 2022
He may have missed another but hard to tell.
Notes:
Also some practice tidbits, including William Jackson’s insistence he played legal defense against Dyami Brown, a (lengthy) discussion that led to an on-field review after practicehttps://t.co/XkHnZpvu6a pic.twitter.com/EyEvSXRAwh
