Speculation is running rampant about how the Washington Commanders could approach the 2025 trade deadline. Adam Peters was probably hoping to be aggressive with his team in playoff contention. That hasn't occurred, which puts him in a difficult spot before the November 4 cut-off point.
Some team insiders believe Peters will stand pat. Others are touting another bold move. There is even the prospect of the front-office leader agreeing to outgoings with the Commanders at 3-5 and going nowhere fast this season. There is just no telling for sure, but a subtle clue emerged during Washington's defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football.
