312.8 yards/game (24th)
19.4 points/game (25th)

When we started on the weekends in 1996 we never dreamed we’d be able to do something we love for so long. It’s all because of you. Thanks for listening and supporting your boys!
Entercom, the unrivaled leader in sports radio, and
@JunksRadio
, announce a new long-term contract extension: "We're excited to continue waking up Washington on 106.7 The Fan for many years to come."
The first big hire of
#Commanders
coach Dan Quinn is on the board. Kliff Kingsbury recently interviewed after talks broke down with the
#Raiders
.
Now, he’ll join Washington.
Guess who will join us every week throughout the NFL season on
@1067theFan
? Former Washington QB
@RGIII
will join us every Monday at 8 am. Then on Tuesdays at 9:00 am
@Commanders
defensive captain
@jonallen93_
will talk football with us.
A shakeup in Washington:
#Commanders
defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio has been fired following another crushing loss, sources say, this time to the
#Cowboys
.
Ron Rivera presumably will call the D now.
Tonight the Commanders played with no intensity or fire. We didn’t compete in the first half and got down 27-3 heading into halftime. It was too big of a hole to climb out of and that is why we ended up losing 40-20.
BREAKING: Bruce Allen is no longer with the Washington
#Redskins
, per
@AdamSchefter
. After 10 years with organization, he has been relieved of his duties and is “no longer with the organization in any capacity.”

@JunksRadio

Thank you to the best listeners in the world. We appreciate your support whether the home teams are winning or losing. Believe us, we’d be having a whole lot more fun if Washington had won 3 in a row but we’ll take the
#1
ratings. Thank you.
Season’s first general manager hire: Commanders are hiring 49ers’ assistant GM Adam Peters as their general manager, sources tell ESPN.
Peters won Super Bowls while working in New England and Denver, and has been in SF since 2017, helping build one of the NFL’s top rosters.
Three-time Pro Bowl TE Zach Ertz is signing with the
#Commanders
on a one-year deal worth up to $5 million, per source.
It’s a reunion for Ertz and Kliff Kingsbury, who got him a ton of targets in Arizona, on a deal negotiated by agent and TE guru
@SteveCaric

@WassermanNFL

We played Word Association with
@Commanders
Head Coach Dan Quinn during our interview. How do you interpret his answers?
* Terry McLaurin: Explosive
* Jonathan Allen: Dominant
* Sam Howell: Tough
* Caleb Williams: DC
* Drake Maye: Athletic
* Jayden Daniels: Game Changer
Has Sam Howell played better this season than Taylor Heinicke last season for the
@Commanders
?
Howell in 2023: 18 TDs-13 INTs-87.3 rating-49.7 QBR (4-8 record)
Heinicke in 2022: 12 TDs-6 INTs-89.6 rating-46.5 QBR (5-3-1 record)

#Seahawks
perennial Pro Bowler and All-Pro LB Bobby Wagner is signing with the
#Commanders
on a 1-year deal worth a max value of $8.5M, a deal that includes $6M in guarantees.
Dan Quinn was with Wagner a decade ago in Seattle, now they’re back. A splash for Washington.
𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗥𝗘𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧:
The
#49ers
will consider benching DE Chase Young for their Super Bowl matchup vs the
#Chiefs
Young has made a habit of taking several plays off and the 49ers have started to view him as a liability.
The
#Commanders
and Eric Bieniemy agreed to terms on a multiyear deal as their assistant head coach/offensive coordinator, his agent Jason Fletcher tells me.
KC wanted him back. But Bieniemy got an upgraded title, a chance to build his staff and a big commitment.
The
@Capitals
win to advance to face the
@penguins
in the 2nd round once again. Tune in at 6 am as we talk

joins us in studio at 7:00 am. Spread the word!
TRADE!
Sam Howell to the Seahawks, source confirms.
Seahawks also receives a fourth-round pick (No. 102) and a sixth (No. 179).
Commanders get a third (No. 78) and a fifth (No. 152).
@AdamSchefter
1st.
For all those that wanted the
@Commanders
to hire an offensive guy, both Ben Johnson and Bobby Slowik are staying put. The only offensive coach left that the new GM Adam Peters has interviewed is …. Coach EB!
Do you think Sam Howell should be the
@Commanders
starter moving forward or do you think they should consider drafting a QB with one of their top picks?
Sources: The
#Chargers
are releasing WR Mike Williams, making him a free agent. Williams, on the books for a $32M cap hit, becomes a top FA WR available.
