Day 3 of training camp is in the books for the Washington Commanders. It was another hot day in Ashburn as Washington increased its practice time Friday, just as head coach Ron Rivera said in his Wednesday press conference.
Friday’s practice was the second consecutive day that fans attended, and Washington had a special fan in attendance. NBA superstar — and Commanders fan — Kevin Durant attended practice.
Here’s a quick roundup of the highlights and notes from Day 3 of Commanders training camp:

What about the heat?
It's really, really hot outside.
These @Commanders players working through the heat.
Defensive tackle Phidarian Mathis, who weighs 300 pounds, told me, "ain't nothing to it. Hydrate, hydrate!"

Hot day at Commanders training camp but so worth it! Saw all the players and coaches but the best part of my day was meeting @john_keim, the Commanders beat reporter. His articles and podcast are off the chain. I'm a huge fan but not in a Kathy Bates/Misery kinda way lol. pic.twitter.com/pC0uv5NdtO

The fans
I love seeing so many young fans at Commanders training camp.
So important to develop that young fan base.
