The Washington Commanders are set to face off against the Chicago Bears this Sunday, with head coach Dan Quinn continuing his unique approach of rotating captains on a weekly basis . Instead of sticking with traditional season-long captains, Quinn has opted to recognize different players based on leadership qualities that align with each game’s demands.
Captains for Commanders Week 8 4:25 PM ET clash with the Bears:
· Guard Nick Allegretti
· Safety Jeremy Chinn
· Safety Jeremy Reaves
Quinn provided insight into each selection, emphasizing Allegretti’s presence on the offensive line as a driving force.
“So much of Nick’s leadership shows up with the offensive line, the toughness, the line of scrimmage, and he is an absolute warrior,” Quinn said , acknowledging Allegretti’s impact in cultivating resilience among his teammates.
On defense, Jeremy Chinn, who joined the Commanders this season after four years with the Panthers, was chosen for his maturity and adaptability.
