Commanders practice gets chippy during second padded session

The Washington Commanders held their second padded practice on August 5, 2026, where tensions escalated among players. Notable skirmishes involved rookie running back Kaytron Allen and safety Nick Cross, as well as receiver Jacoby Jones and safety Quan Martin. Additionally, receiver Luke McCaffrey and cornerback Mike Sainristil were involved in a notable confrontation. The team’s owner, Josh Harris, attended the practice, adding motivation for players. Linebacker Frankie Luvu has shown improvement in his position, providing leadership on defense, while Trey Amos remains sidelined on the physically unable to perform list. The Commanders will take a break on August 6 before returning for regular practice.
