Training camp and preseason are complete, and the Washington Commanders must finalize a 53-man roster with no further preseason opportunities. General manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn face difficult decisions influenced by final preseason performances. Peters may add players released leaguewide before the cut-down deadline and holds an extra Day 3 draft pick as trade leverage after trading Brian Robinson Jr. to the 49ers. Numerous players risk being cut, and many will be considered for the practice squad or claimed on waivers. Special-teams spots show relative stability, with kicker Matt Gay's performance and contract guaranteeing significant influence.
Training camp is done. Preseason games are now confined to the history books. Those looking to make the Washington Commanders' 53-man roster cannot do any more in their quest to make the squad. Some difficult decisions are upcoming for general manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn. They'll probably have a good indicator of how things are going to look, although their judgment may have been swayed by how some performed in their final warmup contest against the Baltimore Ravens.
There's also the chance of Peters adding some new faces to the ranks. Good players are about to be released around the league heading into the cut-down deadline. The front-office leader also has another Day 3 draft pick to potentially use in a trade after shipping running back Brian Robinson Jr. to the San Francisco 49ers. It's the most torrid time of year on the NFL calendar.
