There will not be too many Washington fans who have not interacted with Andy Burrows over the years. From his hosting of The Bunker and to his regular trips to Nation’s Capitol, Andy lives and breathes all things burgundy and gold. When Andy stepped onto the stage at the NFL Draft 2026, he wasn’t just representing the Washington Commanders—he was representing UK fans everywhere. UKHTTC founder, Christian Burt, caught up with Andy to relive the moment, from the surprise announ

Well, after making the defensive side of the ball a priority in free agency, Washington also went that way in the first round of the NFL Draft. The selection of Sonny Styles (LB, Ohio State) at seven was perhaps prompted by the Kansas City Chiefs trading up to six to land the most revered cornerback in the draft, Mansoor Delane. It would have been interesting to see if the Commanders would still have selected Styles ahead of Delane. Is this a win for Washington? As ever with

The opening phase of free agency for the Washington Commanders has been notably defensive, with the majority of new signings strengthening that side of the ball. Revamping the Edge Positions The Commanders have entirely rebuilt their edge positions, starting with the high-profile acquisition of Odafe Oweh . Oweh’s arrival is a standout move that instantly bolsters Washington’s pass rush. In addition, K’Lavon Chaisson joins as a valuable rotational option, bringing fresh ener

Going into the free agency period only Jacory Croskey-Merritt was under contract in the Washington Commanders running backs room. GM Adam Peters took action with the additions of Rachaad White, Jerome Ford and the resigning of Jeremy McNichols. White arrives in Washington as a quietly intriguing addition rather than a headline-grabbing signing — but that’s exactly what makes this deal so smart. Over his time in Tampa Bay, Rachaad built a reputation as one of the NFL’s more re

The Washington Commanders have added a piece to their secondary, signing cornerback Amik Robertson in free agency after his time with the Detroit Lions. For a Washington team that has cap space but several defensive holes to address, Robertson looks like a sensible depth addition with starting experience and a reputation for playing with an edge. Originally drafted in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Las Vegas Raiders, Robertson has carved out a solid NFL career

In Tuesday’s blog post, UKHTTC founder Christian Burt suggested three effective DEF strategies to help the Commanders regain momentum for the 2026 season. Now, we shift our focus to the offensive receiving corps. Get Better — Much Better — in the Slot at WR With the Commanders moving on from Kliff Kingsbury, there’s been plenty of chatter inside the building about shifting toward a more traditional, pocket-based attack under new offensive coordinator David Blough. If that’s t

The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions, and all 32 teams are now 0-0. For Washington, the season just gone was in stark contrast to the 2024 campaign. After the high of an NFC Championship appearance, a five-win season was a nasty reminder of the toughness of the National Football League. Injuries curtailed the rookie promise of QB Jayden Daniels and exposed the overall weakness of the burgundy & gold roster. Commanders GM Adam Peters could, however, be in a worse pred

This season, marked by significant setbacks, hit another low point on Sunday. The Commanders couldn't manage a single score against Minnesota, conceding 31 consecutive points. Although last week's game at home against Denver showed notable improvement, the confidence under Dan Quinn that "we are no longer lost" now seems, at best, misplaced and, at worst, raises more doubts about his long-term prospects in D.C. As this disappointing season continues, Christian Burt , UKHTTC f

Confession time. This blog has been a long time coming—writing about this Washington Commanders season isn’t easy. But take a deep breath: here we are in 2025. The burgundy and gold bandage has finally been ripped away, and now we see the true state of the Commanders nation. It’s not a pleasant sight, but with an eye toward the future, how can Washington recover in 2026? UKHTTC founder Christian Burt shares his perspective. The Quarterback The quarterback in D.C. has faced a

The Commanders’ 2025 season has hit rock bottom — and it’s time to face the pain head-on. The 2025 season has been little short of shambolic for the burgundy and gold. After just nine games, it’s fair to say this one is done. On a night when Hall of Famer WR Art Monk saw his number 81 jersey retired, the Commanders utterly failed on both sides of the ball to live up to the pre-game atmosphere and excitement. It’s somewhat ironic that a receiving great like Monk was honoured –

The upcoming Sunday Night Football clash with the Seattle Seahawks is pivotal for the Washington Commanders’ slim playoff chances. A win is essential to keep contention hopes alive. This matchup may determine whether the burgundy and gold remain competitive or start considering trade-out changes for the remainder of the season. UKHTTC’s Christian breaks down where the Commanders could find success in Seattle—and the challenges that could derail their efforts. Can Jayden Dani

After the agonising loss vs the Bears on Monday Night Football, the Commanders have an opportunity to bounce back with a road trip to Dallas for the week 7 match-up. The roster continues to be injury-hit – it was hoped that WR1 Terry McLaurin would have recovered from the quad injury that he picked up week three vs the Raiders, but Scary stays on the sidelines. And with fellow receivers Noah Brown on IR and Deebo Samuel carrying an ankle problem respectively, the Commanders s
