The Washington Commanders aren't in the business of carrying dead weight these days. If players aren't developing accordingly or not buying into the project fully, they are not going to last long.
This is the right way to run the football operation. The Commanders attached sentiment to their decision-making process too often under previous regimes, and the downward spiral was glaring. Adam Peters and Dan Quinn are doing things differently, which was further evidenced by the release of second-year linebacker Dominique Hampton.
Hampton is the first draft pick made by Peters deemed surplus to requirements.
