About this episode

The Washington Commanders face a critical need at cornerback, following the release of Marshon Lattimore and the departure of Jonathan Jones and Noah Igbinoghene. Despite drafting cornerbacks in the second round the past two years, the team remains unsettled at the position. New defensive coordinator Daronte Jones aims to improve the performance of youngsters like Mike Sainristil and Trey Amos. With over $80 million in salary cap space, the Commanders are poised to sign a top cornerback, such as CorDale Flott or Jalen Dean, to bolster their defense and solidify their secondary.
