Washington hits the field for the sixth day of training camp
The Washington Commanders are back in Ashburn for the seventh day of training camp practices. Dan Quinn spoke to the media this morning, highlighting some of the players that stood out during the team’s first practice in pads. Fans are in attendance again, and the pads will be on for another day
Austin Ekeler:
Sweet jump cut from Austin Ekeler. Dude seems to be on a mission this offseason.

Couple of blunders on offense today, fumbles and drops. Not Austin Ekeler though. He’s protecting that ball with his life today……

Defense forced a Zach Ertz fumble right after. Luvu on the recovery.

Not sure how Milne makes the squad but back of WR room is open, imo.

Jayden Daniel —-> Terry McLaurin:
That Jayden to Terry McLaurin pass….

Keandre Jones:
Former Good Counsel standout Keandre Jones continues to flash at LB

Marcus Mariota —-> Brycen Tremayne:
And now Brycen Tremayne makes a diving grab of a deep ball from Mariota. Half the offense came running on the field to celebrate after.

Emmanuel Forbes vs Terry McLaurin:
Nice job by Forbes breaking on a slant to Terry
— Lynnell Willingham (@Nell_BTP) July 30, 2024

A lot of mixing and matching going on overall

Brandon Coleman at RT:
JD5 TD to Ertz during RZ work
Coleman at RT w 2 good B2B reps vs Fowler & Luvu
Up and down day for the rook
— Lynnell Willingham (@Nell_BTP) July 30, 2024
Mike Sainristil:
Sainristil has a chance to be one of the best slot corners in the NFL from day 1
He’s been really impressive/as advertised all camp
— Lynnell Willingham (@Nell_BTP) July 30, 2024
Brandon Aiyuk trade request:
A fan just told Josh Harris to get Brandon Aiyuk, and he points to Adam Peters #RaiseHail

Notes
Service has been a little spotty today so here’s some rapid thoughts
– Newton working with the third team but giving a lot of effort
– Dotson looked like his old self with a grab from a comeback route near sideline
– McLaurin is as smooth as ever
– McNichols is sneaky quick— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) July 30, 2024
Practice is over. Easily the most fun of camp. That happens when plays are made, particularly by the offense.
Jayden was sharp. Jahan caught a bunch of targets (with a couple of misses). Tremayne popped. Sainristill shined in coverage, hustle plays. Thought Coleman looked good.
