The Washington Commanders are 7-2 for the first time since 1996, prompting the Burgundy and Gold to make the blockbuster deal for 4-time Pro Bowl cornerback Marshon Lattimore at Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline. Longtime WTOP afternoon anchor (and lifelong Steelers fan) Shawn Anderson joins the WTOP Sports team to break down the deal and then the grueling Keystone Two-Step — hosting 6-2 Pittsburgh before a Thursday night NFC East battle in Philadelphia.
Also inside the D.C. Sports Huddle: At the unofficial midway point of the Commanders’ season, Washington is second in the NFC and the odds-on favorite to win their division. The WTOP Sports team grades the first half of the season and makes bold predictions for what to expect in the Burgundy and Gold’s final nine regular season games.
Huddle up with host and WTOP Senior Content Producer Rob Woodfork, WTOP Sports Director George Wallace, and fellow sports anchor Dave Preston.
