## Resource

The Washington Commanders are rolling out a revamped defense this season, led by new coordinator Daronte Jones and featuring Javon Kinlaw — a defensive lineman whose hype has been met with skepticism in the past. After a fiery post-OTAs quote that went viral, Kinlaw’s bold claims may finally be backed by real talent, as the unit boasts a strong front seven, depth at edge rusher, and a potentially explosive linebacker corps. If the secondary holds up and injuries stay minimal, this defense could be a surprise. With the NFC East’s spotlight elsewhere, Washington’s low-key approach might be just what they need — and for Kinlaw, this is his make-or-break year: prove himself on the field, or risk being gone by 2027.
