During the Washington Commanders' rookie minicamp, new players engaged in standard activities until the arrival of Navy SEALs, who shared insights on teamwork and mental resilience. Over a 30-minute period, rookies participated in intensive drills involving a 250-pound log lift. This exercise, which underscored communication and coordination, aligned with Coach Dan Quinn's philosophy. Josh Conerly Jr., an offensive tackle, noted that the experience highlighted the importance of unity and perseverance, reinforcing Quinn's message about the value of tackling challenges alongside supportive teammates.
It was cool, knowing that you all have to be on the same page, hear the same communication, and you just have to move as one at all times.
One thing that kind of stands out to me about Coach Quinn, and one of his quotes, is doing hard ... I'm going to say 'stuff' with good people. That resonates throughout the whole building.
