Ravens 41, Commanders 3: Four takeaways from Washington preseason loss

Key Points:

• The Washington Commanders concluded their preseason with a 41-3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, marking the end of their 91-man offseason roster which must be cut to 53 players by Sunday at 6 p.m. ET.
• The preseason finale featured mostly lower-depth chart players, with 41 players inactive, including many key starters, leaving limited insight into the core roster but raising questions about some bubble players.
• Receiver Luke McCaffrey's participation while others sat suggests he may be on the roster bubble despite earlier expectations, as the receiver group has deepened with new additions like Stefon Diggs.
• Defensive back Tyler Owens stood out with aggressive play and big hits, signaling he could carve out a role on the team, especially given his special teams contributions.
• Several players fighting for a final roster spot struggled in the game, including linebackers Ale Kaho and Kain Medrano, receiver Jaden Bradley, running back Robert Henry, and interior lineman Julian Good-Jones, highlighting areas needing improvement before the regular season.
