Jeff Zgonina active in leading the defensive drills. Warren Sapp is also here again. pic.twitter.com/9EBtdmXk99
Zgonina was a vocal and active presence during position drills even with Sam Mills III here, often directing the linemen with the movements. https://t.co/tNYmKCN9yQ

New DL coach Jeff Zgonina running individual drills. The energy stood out.

Taylor Heinicke —-> Dax Milne
Dax Milne opens up 11-on-11s with a grab from Heinicke. Already off to good start
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) August 10, 2022
Sam Howell —-> Kyric McGowan
The Commanders generally go first team vs first team, but they’re switching it up today. Sam Howell, running the third team, just had a real nice ball against the first team. Kyric McGowan with the catch.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 10, 2022
Carson Wentz
Wentz just finished up 7-on-7. Went 3/6 on his passes, two were on the numbers but were dropped by Samuel and Gibson. One was a really nice PBU by Danny Johnson
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) August 10, 2022
A few plays later, Wentz finds Dotson down the left sideline for a sizeable gain.
— Ethan Cadeaux (@Ethan_Cadeaux) August 10, 2022
Wentz unloads for a 35-yard throw to McLaurin, who brings it in with Bobby McCain covering
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) August 10, 2022
Wentz with two goal line TDs: one to Terry and one to Dyami. Not a bad period for the QB
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) August 10, 2022
Near misses
Bobby McCain just dropped what should have been an INT on Carson Wentz. QB1 had been money today until that throw
— Ethan Cadeaux (@Ethan_Cadeaux) August 10, 2022
Couple of passes have been nearly picked off today. Bobby McCain had one escape his grasp during blitz period, and Nate Gerry couldn’t hold on in the end zone
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) August 10, 2022
Bobby McCain INT
We see you 2️⃣0️⃣ pic.twitter.com/QQJQV9TLt6
— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) August 10, 2022
Carson Wentz threw his first pick since that one Monday when he had three INTs. He took a deep shot to McLaurin, who was blanketed by two defenders. Bobby McCain with the grab.

Shaka Toney vs Curtis Hodges
First fight of camp: TE Curtis Hodges vs. DE Shaka Toney.
— Sam Fortier (@Sam4TR) August 10, 2022
On a pass play, Hodges was blocking Toney and did something Toney didn’t like, so Toney smacked him in the helmet. TE Sammis Reyes and DE Montez Sweat were among those first to the scrum. Died down quick.
Brief situation …Shaka Toney didn’t like how Curtis Hodges blocked him on one rep. After the whistle confronted and then ripped off Hodges helmet. Went no further. Toney came out after this play. Wasn’t much but it was a heated couple seconds.
