It’s just a joint practice, but it’ll also provide a lot of what the Commanders have needed in the past: more work in the summer that puts them in position to get off to a fast start. And with a young quarterback and new starters at four offensive line positions, practicing against another team will give a better idea of how — and where — the team is progressing.
“Important work,” right tackle Andrew Wylie said.
The Commanders will practice Tuesday and Wednesday with Baltimore at the Ravens’ facility in Owings Mills, Maryland. It’s Washington’s first joint practice since 2018, when the team started 6-3 before multiple quarterback injuries — Alex Smith was hurt in Week 10 — devastated and altered their season.
