Attendance for the Washington Commanders’ start of organized team activities was extremely high, signaling that last season’s failures would not be repeated. Fans were pleased by the emphasis on avoiding complacency. Dorance Armstrong Jr. and Trey Amos were notable absences due to significant knee and leg injuries from the previous season. Head coach Dan Quinn addressed concerns by explaining that multiple players are being managed after last year’s injury crisis. Quinn emphasized that while having everyone available for OTAs and mandatory minicamp would be ideal, the primary objective is having players ready by training camp. Armstrong is progressing well, and Amos is on track without additional setbacks, with both expected to play key defensive roles next season.
"[Dan] Quinn said the Commanders are managing several players who sustained injuries last season, and all of them are on slightly different tracks to returning to the field. As much as the Commanders want everyone on the field for OTAs and mandatory minicamp, their main goal remains having everyone ready to go by training camp."
"Veteran edge rusher Dorance Armstrong Jr. and second-year cornerback Trey Amos didn't participate. Both suffered significant knee and leg injuries, respectively, last time around. Their presences were sorely missed, but time is now on the Commanders' side."
"Armstrong is making good progress. Amos is also on track with no additional setbacks during his recovery. Both are expected to play key roles on the Commanders' defense next season, so gradually bringing them along to minimize risk is paramount."
"Attendance for the start of organized team activities was extremely high for the Washington Commanders. It sent a clear message that last season's failures would not be tolerated again, pleasing fans who don't want complacency to return."
