So, what we learned here is that if you’re interested on doing some responsible drinking on gameday, perhaps you should get it done during the tailgate. Or else, it will cost you a pretty penny inside.

Commanders gearing up for preseason finale vs. Patriots

The beverage prices make their 2024 debut in Sunday’s preseason finale against the New England Patriots. Head coach Dan Quinn has opted to rest 34 players, including quarterback Jayden Daniels, receiver Terry McLaurin and linebacker Bobby Wagner among many others. That means that Sunday’s game will be a showcase for those looking to stick on the 53-man roster.

Teams have until 4 p.m. ET this Tuesday to shave their roster down to 53.

“There’s like a razor thin line to stand on because really the way we kind of look at it now, it’s a 70-man roster that there’s veterans that can go onto practice squad and get activations up,” Quinn said. “So, we think bigger into that space. And so sometimes those veterans at a certain spot, if you needed depth that would provide at a third, let’s call it at a position versus a rookie that we think is gonna keep making the strides.

“But, it’s been a big change adding the veterans onto the practice squad where your scope can go a little bit bigger. It’s always a hard conversation to have for either ball player, whether it’s the veteran or the rookie, but at the end of it just, we’ll always kind of decide on just the competitive nature of what we’ve seen and make the decision from there.”
