The Washington Commanders prioritized strengthening their league-worst defense by allocating primary resources this offseason. New defensive coordinator Daronte Jones is expected to help with innovative concepts. Defensive lineman Javon Kinlaw is viewed as needing improvement after being seen as an overpay and failing to make a strong impact in his first season. Kinlaw previously drew frustration for brash talk lacking substance, including an expletive-laden rant after the first day of OTAs. This time, his comments suggest genuine excitement about new defensive pieces and talent. The viral soundbite arrives in May, but expectations remain tempered after limited results in 2025.
"The Washington Commanders turned over every stone and allocated their primary resources to fortifying their league-worst defense this offseason. That was a welcome approach, and the introduction of new coordinator Daronte Jones, along with his innovative concepts, will only help."
"Kinlaw went on an expletive-laden rant about the defensive enhancements. To cut a long story short, he is excited about the future. And even though this sort of talk is something fans became all too familiar with last season, there is clearly more meaning to it this time."
""We've got some m------------ now. Excuse my language. It's gonna be exciting, bruh. It's gonna be super exciting to play with these guys, for sure. A lot of talent, bruh. I'm just excited, bro. I'm super excited.""
""I asked JK about the new pieces/faces on defense.He told me, \"We got some motherf******.\"Amazing. pic.twitter.com/s6Tn4kXbCv- Scott Abraham (@Scott7news) May 27, 2026""
