The Washington Commanders are ready to get back to work in Year 2 of the Dan Quinn era.
Players will begin reporting to the team facility in Ashburn, Virginia, on April 22, kicking off a seven-week period for the new roster to prepare for the 2025 regular season. Here are the dates you should keep in mind from now until June:
- First Day: April 22
- Rookie minicamp: May 8-11
- Phase One: April 22-25; April 28-May 1
- Phase Two: May 5-8; May 12-15; May 19-22
- Phase Three: May 27-30; June 2-6
- Minicamp: June 10-12
Here is an explanation for the three phases of the offseason workout program:
- Phase One: consists of the first two weeks of the program with activities limited to meetings, strength and conditioning, and physical rehabilitation only.
- Phase Two: consists of the next three weeks of the program. On-field workouts may include individual or group instruction and drills, as well as "perfect play drills," and drills and plays with offensive players lining up across from offensive players and defensive players lining up across from defensive players, conducted at a walk-through pace. No live contact or team offense vs. team defense drills are permitted.
- Phase Three: consists of the next four weeks of the program. Teams may conduct a total of 10 days of organized team practice activity, or "OTAs." No live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills are permitted.
