Go inside the Washington Commanders locker room for the raw, post-game reactions following the team's preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Hear rookie running back Jacory "Bill" Croskey-Merritt describe the emotional moment of scoring his first NFL touchdown, a feeling he called "finally real".

Then, veteran safety and team leader Jeremy Reaves gives his unfiltered thoughts on the team's performance, why "the standard is the standard", and how he handles outside turmoil by focusing on his "duty to the men around" him. The episode wraps with first-round rookie Josh Conerly Jr. on the confidence of the offensive line, the hot start for the run game, and being rewarded by his coaches for his hard work.
