Commanders overshadowed injury return could be a game changer
"There was an enormous amount of concern when Brown got carted off the practice field at mandatory minicamp. The Commanders didn't officially disclose the issue, but they treated the Ohio State product with extreme caution over training camp. Brown didn't get any reps during the preseason, which wasn't a great shock in the circumstances. However, the fact that he looked explosive and sharp during an on-field workout before Washington's final warmup game against the Baltimore Ravens represented a positive step in the right direction."
"The Commanders gave Brown another one-year extension this offseason despite the player suffering a serious internal issue that required kidney surgery versus the Tennessee Titans. Another injury-hit offseason wasn't ideal, but it would be a big surprise if he wasn't on the field when Week 1 against the New York Giants arrives on Sunday. If the Commanders want to reach loftier expectations this season, they need Brown to be fit and firing throughout."
Terry McLaurin signed a lucrative contract extension, resolving a disheartening standoff and lifting morale across the Washington Commanders organization. Adam Peters reached middle ground with McLaurin's agent, creating a mutually beneficial situation before the season. Time is urgent for McLaurin to regain football shape. Noah Brown's recovery provided an overlooked morale boost. Brown was carted off during mandatory minicamp and was treated with extreme caution through training camp, receiving no preseason reps. Brown looked explosive and sharp during a pre-final warmup on-field workout. The Commanders gave Brown a one-year extension despite kidney surgery, and he is expected to be available for Week 1.
