Defensive line:
One area of the @Commanders training camp practice fields that has been interesting to view has been the Defensive Lineman and partly because of coach @dtapp55. The voice of the 12-year veteran Defensive End (one of those years with Washington) is beyond infectious! pic.twitter.com/oDRJZrares

Dan Quinn said players wearing pads puts an emphasis on the trenches and the run game, which is why I wrote takeaways on the Commanders’ OL and the run game.
