The Week 2 NFL preseason schedule closes out when the Cincinnati Bengals visit the Washington Commanders on Monday. Last week, the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Bengals, 34-27. On the other side, the Commanders were blown out 48-18 by the New England Patriots.

Wide receiver Mitchell Tinsley scored two touchdowns on passes from quarterback Jake Browning in the second quarter of the NFL Week 2 preseason game against the Commanders. Tinsley signed with the Commanders as an undrafted free agent out of college and was signed by the Bengals for this preseason.

The Washington Commanders still have a need, and here is one trade they must make before Week 1 of the 2025 NFL season.

As the impasse continues, with McLaurin absent from the team's second preseason game on Monday, some large questions remain unanswered.

If Terry McLaurin is going to take a hardline stance on getting exactly what he wants from a new contract, it may not come from the Washington Commanders.

In a mutual decision between team and player, Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. will sit out the team's preseason game against the visiting Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night, NFL Network and ESPN reported.

Ahead of the August 26 roster cuts deadline, NFL teams are making and taking calls for players on the roster bubble. The Washington Commanders may be willing to trade their starting running back.

Commanders RB Brian Robinson has been a steady producer in Washington for the past three seasons. The burly former Alabama back rebounded from being shot in a carjacking attempt his rookie year to play 12 games and still lead the team in rushing.
