## Resource

The Washington Commanders made a swift move, firing tight ends coach Ben Steele just before training camp — a decision sparked by his arrest in June for DWI, refusal to take tests, and resisting arrest. Steele had already been on leave since minicamp after informing the team. Despite his past success in developing Trey McBride with Arizona, the Commanders prioritized discipline and focus, opting to replace him quickly ahead of the new offensive coordinator’s heavy reliance on the tight end position. A new coach is expected to be named before the first practice. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
