One bad joint practice with the New York Jets issued a reminder about how Washington could look during a rebuilding season.
For Washington Commanders fans who have grown increasingly optimistic about this season during the Pollyanna days of training camp, the joint practice Thursday against the New York Jets was a cold shower — literally.
The Commanders, in an at-times-torrential downpour, looked out of sync in all three phases, especially on offense. Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who took all the first-team snaps, looked fine, and the problems were more on the offensive line — a thin unit made thinner by injuries.
