Mitchell Tinsley played well throughout camp and preseason, culminating last night w 89 rec yards and a TD. Tinsley believes he’s done enough to make the 53 but knows that’s not up to him. Full intvw here https://t.co/VSaSQP476n pic.twitter.com/vTHoZf11KD

Tinsley feels like one of those everyone gets worked up about maybe losing but lands on the practice squad a day later.
He’s been pretty impressive for sure, but even if he lands elsewhere, Commanders pretty deep at WR, Tinsley wouldn’t see much time regardless. https://t.co/W69XG4k5De

Paul does not have the greatest lateral movement. I think that’s why the staff prefers Charles at G. pic.twitter.com/IRXyC5iols

I remember how these next couple of days feel. Waiting, afraid of getting a call. My best advice.. You may get it once, you may get it 5 years straight like I did, or you may never get it. End of the day, no matter how much you’re told no, Nobody can stop what God has for you

Man, if Sam Howell looked like this there is no way he’d see the field in reg season.
Then again this is preseason and nothing matters. Fields may be just fine once the regular season starts.
But Sam Howell couldn’t have shown this in a preseason game and hung onto his job. https://t.co/ln8EA20LXg

Record vs Payroll:
New York Yankees: 62-67, $279.3M
Washington Nationals: 61-69, $92.9M
San Diego Padres: 61-69, $252.6M
New York Mets: 59-71, $344M
Judging by how these teams are playing, the 2023 #Nats will finish better than the three highest payrolls in MLB.
Insane.
