Ben Standig

Announcement: I did a thing. New home for my written Commanders coverage. I'm excited for everyone to join the adventure. First up, the mission statement for "Last Man Standig."

Really cool moment tonight postgame after VCU upset UNC. VCU head coach Phil Martelli Jr. made a point to shoutout the student reporters that made the trip. Lots of great stuff this time of year, but this was a really awesome, genuine exchange.

I like how the Wizards are shutting down A.J. Dybantsa for the remainder of the tournament.

🎙Thoughts on Chris Paul’s return, the Jeremiyah Love debate, the new Commanders' contracts, Jeremy Reaves getting an extension, and Tom Brady roasting Jayden Daniels. @ByLiamGriffin joins me. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

@gene_wang @JasonMurray117 @Greg_Schimmel Congrats, Geno

Blessed beyond words to have had @JasonMurray117 @Greg_Schimmel in my corner. Also too many colleagues to thank for the uplift.

Siena getting good looks but legs appear shot.

I haven't watched Siena play this season before today. Zero subs for the entire game is insane. If you told me some squad loaded with NBAers, like the Fab 5 or the Anthony Davis Kentucky team played all 40, I could maybe understand. Duke let off the hook.

🎙️Part 1 of our post-free agency assessment with me, @john_keim, @RealBramW begins on offense. Some good fits for sure, but did the Commanders help Jayden Daniels enough? The WR room. LG camp battle. Brandon Aiyuk. I also talked Tunsil and Mock Draft 5.0. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

A lot to celebrate this week huh?!? I love yall man, thank you 100 times over! Best fans in the world ❤️

If you're wondering, the Miami Hurricanes will hold pro day on March 23.

Jeremy Reaves's extension comes two days before his wedding. "Big week for the kid."

Tom Brady went from getting roasted to roasting Jayden Daniels on his injuries, his thin frame and... damn, he made mom jokes.

The Commanders announce an extension with S Jeremy Reaves that will keep him around through the 2027 season.

Looking at the Commanders' roster turnover during Dyami Brown's 1-year absence. I'm counting 28 teammates remaining. So, roughly half the roster has changed since the end of the 2024 season.

The NFL's resistance to full-time officials is forever the mystery of our time.

@lynwoodgray He said Aiyuk disappeared.

@BenStandig small correction from the Pod. Kittle did not say something similar to TJ on the Compton Pod. Matter of fact it was very different. Like completely different.

Part two of the trilogy with ⁦@RealBramW⁩ and ⁦@BenStandig⁩. Today, we discuss the Commanders’ D. Have they done enough? What if someone gave them a good offer for Daron Payne? What else they need. @espnrichmond podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/joh…

Laremy Tunsil had a few theories — some joking — for why his extension with the Commanders got done so quickly. Sometimes, it’s not that complicated. lastmanstandig.substack.com/p/the-hurry-up…

@thebmoc95 This isn't every name but all the names that fit in a tweet.

@BenStandig Several is a weird way to say a baker's dozen.

There are still several 2025 Commanders available in free agency: WR Deebo Samuel LB Bobby Wagner TE Zach Ertz DE Von Miller RB Austin Ekeler WR Noah Brown CB Antonio Hamilton DE Preston Smith DT Eddie Goldman Dt Sheldon Day DL Jayln Holmes OT George Fant QB Jeff Driskel
