The Washington Commanders completed their 2026 NFL preseason with a record of one win and two losses. The short preseason schedule gave both fans and coaches a glimpse of the team’s capabilities and areas needing improvement as they prepare for the upcoming regular season.

In the first week of preseason action on August 14, 2026, the Commanders hosted the Miami Dolphins and secured a victory with a final score of 20-7. This game was the sole win in their preseason outings, setting a positive tone initially.

However, the following weeks presented challenges. On August 22, 2026, the Commanders traveled to Detroit, where they faced off against the Lions and narrowly lost with a score of 17-13. Encountering further difficulties, they suffered a tough loss against the Baltimore Ravens on August 28, 2026, with a significant deficit, ending the game with a score of 41-3 on Baltimore’s home turf.

While preseason outcomes do not affect regular-season standings, they are crucial for evaluating player performances and team dynamics. Remember, these games are primarily used for assessing players and strategies rather than final results.
