first day in pads pic.twitter.com/hqzvUhnTfi
— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) August 2, 2022
Big day at Commanders camp as the pads come on for the first time. Ideally, that slows down the pass rush in 11v11, and in turn, the offense starts to look a lot better. Kinda unrealistic when D-Line gets free rush on a lot of snaps. Definitely something to watch.

Linebacker Drew White, an undrafted LB out of Notre Dame, is being carted off. Didn’t see what happened, only saw him being driven away and other defenders coming over to console him

UDFA LB Drew White went down after trying to spin around RB Antonio Gibson in a pass-protection drill.
— Sam Fortier (@Sam4TR) August 2, 2022
It looked like White hurt his right leg/knee and was mad. He took his helmet off and smacked it on the ground. Ron Rivera & Co. came to check on him. White was carted off. pic.twitter.com/uZoNhepz38
WR Curtis Samuel, TE John Bates, DB Troy Apke, DB DeJuan Neal and the three guys on PUP start practice on the side field.

Ron Rivera said DE James Smith-Williams has a hip injury and the team is "just evaluating. He was absent from practice today.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) August 2, 2022
Smith-Williams had been working primarily with the ones in place of Chase Young (ACL).
Ron Rivera said James Smith-Williams is working through a hip injury. John Bates dealing with a calf issue.

You know what a bigger mistake was? Cutting Charles Leno, which led to drafting Jenkins.

The NFL had to give this kind of punishment by the way. You can't just outright try to poach your own division rival's player while they are under contract.
— Brett Kollmann (@BrettKollmann) August 2, 2022
Let alone also try to poach him AGAIN two years later, AND try to poach another team's HC. Other owners won't tolerate it.
The only reasoning that I can see for why Tom Brady will not be suspended himself as well is that perhaps he can argue he was only meeting with Ross to discuss a post-retirement minority ownership stake - NOT a playing opportunity - but man that is the grayest of gray areas.

Juan Soto, playing at Nationals Park for what could be the final time.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) August 2, 2022
✅ Home run
✅ 3 walks
✅ On base in every plate appearance
✅ Stolen Base
✅ Scored on a heads up play
✅ Talked ump into calling a balk that didn't happen
Two reminders on Juan Soto:
— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) August 2, 2022
- No player, age 23 or younger, has EVER been traded midseason the year he was an All-Star
- No player has ever made multiple All-Star teams AND changed teams ALL before turning 24 (h/t @EliasSports)
Both of these would apply to Soto.
Washington moves from 24th to 8th in the live farm system rankings. If you were to include recently-graduated MacKenzie Gore in the calculus, they'd move to 5th. https://t.co/aXEzycICmh
— FanGraphs Prospects (@FG_Prospects) August 2, 2022
The 2018 Nationals had Soto, Harper, Rendon, Scherzer, Turner and others. It's going to be wild to look back on that team someday, a dynasty-level core group of players. MLB equivalent of the early 2010s Thunder, though Nats did get one ring.

The return is better for Washington without taking on the 3-year, $39M of Hosmer over the next 3 seasons. They were making this deal for the five young players. Hosmer was part of the cost. https://t.co/dwK4wxmeVs
