Washington Hot Takes

@ESPNFC Ok this is getting out of hand!

Players who cover their mouths when confronting an opponent will be sent off at this summer's World Cup. FIFA proposed toughening the sanctions following the incident between Vinícius Júnior and Gianluca Prestianni in February.

@FullCommandShow That’s a fair point as well. My other thought is who would you have included if Ayiuk is not added? Would it be another WR or different position?

@WashCommanders5 The issue with putting Athan (or anyone else) on the P squad is he can be claimed by another team. Would be playing a risky game with a draft pick

Athleticism off the charts 📈

All glory to god dream about this all my life all I ever need was opportunity 🙏🏽🙏🏽

@5Comii @CommandersMusee being in a drop typically means those players have performed well overtime… honestly all the CFB ratings don’t mean anything anyways but wanted to point it out.

@WashCommanders5 @CommandersMusee ultimate team cards boost and lower overalls based on the set that don’t count 😂

Washington Commanders College Football 26 ratings: Sonny Styles - 93 Antonio Williams - 89 Joshua Josephs - 90 Kaytron Allen - 92 Matt Gulbin - 90 Athan Kaliakmanis - 86

Last season they kept correcting JCM to Bill (@JacoryMerritt15). Now we got this season with Kaytron aka FATMAN (@kaytron_allen)!! Man this running back room has the energy we need! LFG! Welcome to DC @kaytron_allen

The class of 2026

Also he is a 98 overall in CFB so that tells you all you need to know 😎

Antonio Williams is a STUD! He was injured in 2025 yet still put up some good numbers. 2024 he went CRAZY! Turn on the tape this dude is a gadget but also made some insane contested catches! Welcome to DC @a_williams2022 #raisehail #Commanders

@GrantPaulsen Read the last sentence. I think based on that this is the typical Peters prospect.

One of the reasons I wasn’t on Williams for the Commanders. Not your typical Peters prospect.

Commanders young LB Core entering 2026: Sonny Styles (9.99 RAS) Leo Chenal (9.99 RAS) Jordan Magee (9.60 RAS) Is this the most athletic LB group in the NFL??? 👀 #RaiseHail

Great pick. Dudes a ATHLETE! #raisehail

@JayDanielsMVP I’d move Styles and Bailey up then bump Tyson down. Interested to see who we take and how it pans out for us throughout the season.

Heres my personal rankings for the #Commanders pick at 7

players are back tomorrow and draft this week

Commanders officially unveil their new uniforms and they COOKED 👨‍🍳 (via: @Commanders)

@Commanders Love it! Imagining all white uni with the black spear helmet 🔥 #raisehail

Down to the last detail

🚨🎙️ MICAH RICHARDS ON TONIGHT REFREE DECISIONS: "Big man, listen to me! We have to be real about this. Let’s be honest: every single big call went against Barça in both legs. Every. Single. One. The referee has to do better there, he really does! You can’t be making game-changing decisions like that at this level and getting them wrong. I’m looking at the handball in the first leg, I’m looking at the penalty tonight... it’s unbelievable! At what point is it not a coincidence anymore? I’m not one for conspiracies, but when it’s the same story every time the whistle blows, you start wondering what’s actually going on. It’s tough, man. It’s really tough for them!"

Hypocrisy at its finest
