The Washington Commanders hosted the Baltimore Ravens in their final preseason game of 2025 on Saturday at Northwest Stadium. Both teams sat the majority of their starters for this game, giving the backup players and roster hopefuls a chance to prove their worth.
It was a struggle for the Commanders from start to finish, with quarterback Sam Hartman committing three turnovers in the first half and Josh Johnson throwing an interception in the second half. The offense struggled to move the ball down the field, scoring just a single field goal all game.
On the opposite side of the ball, the defense struggled to stop the run in the first half, and the Ravens put 30 points on the board. The game’s outcome made it tough to select a player of the game, but linebacker Ale Kaho stood out as one player who clearly wanted to be noticed on Saturday.
Kaho is an undrafted free agent out of UCLA who signed with the Commanders in the hopes of earning a spot on the team. He was second among Commanders’ defenders with seven tackles (six solo) and one tackle for a loss.
The space behind the starting linebackers is pretty wide open, and the Commanders tend to rotate their defenders pretty regularly throughout the game. There’s room for depth, and Kaho made a pretty convincing argument to keep him on the team when roster cuts come this Tuesday. It wasn’t a pretty game for the Commanders, but Kaho made the most of the time he was given. Ale Kaho helped himself this preseason, especially on Saturday.
