John Bates going through blocking drills. Looks good so far. Let’s see how much he does in team drills today pic.twitter.com/xWrZugSEt5

A welcome return for John Bates, who is still wearing a sleeve on his leg but is practicing for the first time since early in camp pic.twitter.com/p8WzBaHXZc

QB drills

Cool drill - QBs working to get downfield while going over second level. Wentz first, then Taylor pic.twitter.com/R5ZJYcmm0b

RB drills

Jaret Patterson going through individual drills. Last year he was one of the stars of the preseason for Washington. Curious to see what he does this time around pic.twitter.com/9RM2Po7o0R

A fun drill from Randy Jordan. Brian Robinson (not pictured) was so tall, he had to run the drill a few times to correctly get the rhythm of it pic.twitter.com/TEgQyJTgRJ

Brian Robinson … too quick for the camera #HTTC pic.twitter.com/LGxSus23II

1s wrap up this 11-on-11 period with a throw-and-catch to Curtis Samuel. He’s brought in a couple catches today. Doesn’t look bothered, health wise.

Steven Parker

Steven Parker, who the team just signed yesterday, nearly got a pick while working with the third unit

Alex Armah

Alex Armah somehow pulled in a pass from Howell through Parker’s hands. The new addition to the secondary has been around the ball a lot

Carson Wentz

Here's a mash-up of 17 Carson Wentz throws I filmed from the early portion of practice. We're not allowed to record during team drills, so this is all during individuals pic.twitter.com/4laUjzor1n

Wentz in his second round of 7-on-7s: completed all three passes - two to Dotson, one to McKissic https://t.co/qofyB7AIG2

Armani Rogers

Armani Rogers, who had a nice catch during the FedEx practice, has had a couple more today. With TE depth being thin, he’s a player who has made the most of his snaps
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) August 8, 2022

The TE room is battling injuries so young guys getting more reps -- and Armani Rogers is definitely taking advantage today. Three receptions. Two of an acrobatic nature for the former college QB.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) August 8, 2022

Defense

David Mayo continues to take snaps ahead of Jamin Davis in some of the defense’s bigger packages. And to no one’s surprise, Phidarian Mathis has taken the Ioannidis role (extra linemen when Commanders go with five).

And a quick note: James Smith-Williams is back practicing

The owner is in attendance again

Fifth practice in a row today with Tanya Snyder in attendance.

Notes

I spend a couple of bulletpoints on Carson Wentz's connection with his top wideouts and also highlight Armani Rogers in this edition of my camp observations https://t.co/RVqNjAMNUK

The latest training camp notebook is up. We saw Dyami Brown and John Bates return to practice, plus Armani Rogers is starting to stand out among the tight endshttps://t.co/HWDYj9bLCS
