The Washington Commanders were on the practice field on Wednesday for their second OTA practice of the week. Head coach Ron Rivera met with the media, and instead of discussing who was not present at OTAs, Rivera talked extensively about young quarterback Sam Howell.
One early takeaway from OTAs is Howell’s work as the first-team quarterback. While he’s been far from perfect, Howell has looked comfortable, which is impressive considering he’s learning a new system with Eric Bieniemy, and he’s only started one NFL game.
