The New England Patriots are approaching Sunday's preseason finale like an actual regular season game with many of their starters expected to see action. Well, the same can't be said for the Washington Commanders.
Per the Boston Herald's Doug Kyed, the Commanders are resting 34 players for the game, including rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels.
So the Patriots will be facing mostly backups to close out their three-game preseason slate.
It'll still be an opportunity for the Patriots' starters to get on-field reps in a game situation against an actual opponent.
