He said I was brought here for a reason. He's confident what I can do. If you have anything that you're worried about, just let it all go. It wasn't like I was doing anything wrong or anything bad was going on. I think he understands you get drafted as a first round pick — regardless of one through 32 — you're the first pick for a team.There's a lot of expectations that come with that. I think he just wanted to let me know that you don't have to worry about any of that. He's confident in me, and just go out there and have fun. That's what we talked about. It's still a game you love when you're a little kid, and just have fun.To continue reading this article, CLICK HERE...Washington '26 Bold PredictionsKevin talked some tennis to start before getting to his Commanders "Top 3 Bold Predictions" for the 2026 season.

Commanders' Jacory Croskey-Merritt is no longer playing with house moneyA season ago, Croskey-Merritt was playing with house money. But more will be needed this time around to cement his status as a long-term piece of Washington's puzzle.Croskey-Merritt had zero expectations as a seventh-round pick, and was so impressive over the offseason that starting running back Brian Robinson Jr. was traded to the San Francisco 49ers to make room for him to play a featured role.To continue reading this article, CLICK HERE...Commanders’ Jayden Daniels is ready to quiet the critics entering his third NFL season“Everybody has an opinion, no matter if it’s good or bad,” he said. “It’s nothing I could really control to the point everybody’s going to say something.
