Washington Commanders reflect on minicamp status from last year
Summary

One year ago, the Washington Commanders completed their mandatory minicamp in June 2025. At the time, receiver Terry McLaurin had not agreed to a contract extension and opted not to report for minicamp, stirring significant discussion among fans and media regarding management's handling of his contract. General Manager Adam Peters faced criticism for not securing McLaurin, despite making moves to bolster the offensive line through trades and the draft. Additionally, right guard Sam Cosmi was recovering from an ACL injury, and the Commanders unveiled the Bobby Beathard Draft Room, honoring one of their most successful GMs. This year, the team approaches minicamp with different expectations.
