The second week of the NFL preseason will be coming to a close in Washington, where the Commanders will be hosting the Cincinnati Bengals in what will be the NFL’s first and only Monday night game of the preseason.
It’s almost fitting that these two teams are facing each other, because they have a lot in common. For one, they’re both dealing with a high profile hold-in. For the Commanders, Terry McLaurin still hasn’t practiced since requesting a trade at the beginning of training camp. McLaurin, who’s been dealing with an ankle injury, was activated off the physically unable to perform list over the weekend, which could be a sign that he’ll possibly be returning to practice soon.
On the Bengals’ end, Trey Hendrickson hasn’t practiced since reporting to training camp on July 30. The drama between the two sides shot up to another level on Sunday with a report that the Bengals are listening to offers for Hendrickson.
Basically, don’t be surprised if you hear both of these names quite a few times on Monday night.
With that in mind, here’s how you can watch the game, and after that, we’ll give you four reasons why you should definitely tune in.
