Leaks/Rumors

We have some confirmed reports of the Commanders' 2026 schedule, but there have also been a ton of leaks coming out that have yet to be confirmed. Here is what we are hearing through the rumor mill as we await confirmation from official sources.

Per multiple different reports, the Commanders are rumored to be playing the defending Super Bowl Champion Seattle Seahawks in Week 3 at home, will return home from London in Week 5 to play the New York Giants, face the Eagles at home in Week 8 on Sunday Night Football, in Week 9 remain home against the Los Angeles Rams, head on the road in Week 10 against the Giants on Thursday Night Football, return home in Week 11 against the Cincinnati Bengals for Monday Night Football, and play home games in Week 14 and 15 against the Houston Texans and Atlanta Falcons.

Recently, developments have pointed to speculation that the Commanders will be facing the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 17. Reports are also suggesting that Washington will head on the road to face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6 for Monday Night Football.

More reports have surfaced predicting that the Commanders will face the Dallas Cowboys on the road in Week 2, and then at home in Week 18, and head to Arizona to take on the Cardinals in Week 12.

We will continue to monitor these leaks/rumors to confirm if they are official slots in the Commanders' schedule.

Preseason Dates

We have yet to have any official news on preseason games. We will update as more information becomes available.

International Game

The Commanders will be making their way across the pond for the second time in as many seasons, this time to London, England, to face the Indianapolis Colts at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in Week 4 of the 2026 season.

It will be quarterback Jayden Daniels first international game after missing last year's contest against the Miami Dolphins in Madrid, Spain.

The Commanders trail the Colts all-time, 11-21, but should be in great shape to pull out a victory against them in Week 4. The Commanders won the last matchup between the two teams 17-16 back in 2022.
