As Quinn said, #Commanders WR Terry McLaurin is back out here at practice today. It's his first time practicing since getting hurt in Week 3.

Quinn said he won't have a good feel for the status of DE Dorance Armstrong (hamstring) until they ramp things up at practice tomorrow.

#Commanders HC Dan Quinn said Brown's groin didn't respond well in practice last week, which prompted the decision to move him to IR.

Quinn said WR Terry McLaurin (quad) will return to practice this week. Today's session will be more of a walkthrough.

It's not just that the Commanders committed three turnovers last night, but also that they didn't force any.

Dan Quinn on the minus-3 turnover margin: "You really don’t deserve to win many games when you’re in that space."

To hang on to their season, the Commanders need to hang on to the ball

After Monday night’s deflating loss, Washington players and coaches weren’t fumbling for answers on what’s needed to get back on course.

"It’s one thing for a tough league and a tough schedule to make things difficult for a team with designs on playing for the sport’s shiniest prizes," @barrysvrlugawp.bsky.social writes. "It’s another for that team to make things difficult for itself." www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/...

After Jayden Daniels’s late fumble, the Bears stun the Commanders

Following Daniels’s miscue, Jake Moody’s field goal on the final play gave Chicago a 25-24 win as the late-game dramatics went the Bears’ way this year.

Can confirm the Commanders are signing DE Drake Jackson.

Jackson is an ex-49er, coming off a knee injury. Was a second-round pick back in 2022 but is still just 24 years old.

Believe it or not, he shares a birthday (date and year) with Bill Croskey-Merritt.

#Commanders QB Jayden Daniels on his fumble: "I’m not finna sit up here and blame it on the elements. At the end of the day, I got to focus. ... I had a lack of focus right there and it cost us the game.”

Daniels couldn't put his finger on a reason why the #Commanders' offense has gotten off to slow starts so often this season.

"We just need to execute better," he said.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

Jayden Daniels said the fourth quarter fumble was his fault. Added that he didn't give Bill a chance on the play.

Laremy Tunsil said he felt like the #Commanders offense was moving the ball well, but turnovers ultimately did them in. They had 3 all season coming into this week; they matched that number against the Bears.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt says he's still got a lot of confidence in himself, but knows he's got to "be better" coming off his recent fumbles.

The Bears' FG is good, and the #Commanders lose 25-24. They fall to 3-3.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

On 3rd-and-1, Daniels fumbled it on the handoff exchange. Pivotal mistake.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

McNichols converted 3rd-and-13 on a checkdown. Crazy.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

The Bears go 3-and-out. #Commanders' offense will have a chance to ice it here.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

Daniels threw it away on 3rd-and-9. #Commanders will punt.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

Daniels pass on 3rd-and-4 was incomplete, but Brisker got flagged for hitting him low.

Tashan Reed @tashanreed.bsky.social · 1d

The Bears' two-point conversion attempt is no good, so #Commanders still lead 24-22.

On 3rd down, Swift breaks a tackle on a short pass and races away for a 55-yard score. Wow.

Daniels puts it on the money to Zach Ertz in the back of the end zone for another TD

The #Commanders blocked the Bears' FG. Enormous play.
