Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn is focusing on internal standards rather than external pressure as the team prepares for their first day of training camp. The new season brings high expectations, but also a sense of optimism from national media after the team’s first NFC Championship appearance in over three decades.
The absence of key player Terry McLaurin is a major concern. McLaurin, a top wide receiver, is holding out for a contract extension and will be fined over $50,000 per day he misses camp. This news comes despite his earlier fine of over $100,000 for missing mandatory mini-camp in June.
The Commanders are now entering their new season with high hopes and internal standards to guide them. With Dan Quinn’s focus on internal pressures being more powerful than external expectations, the team is ready to face challenges head-on and work towards a successful campaign.
