NFL training camp 2022 live - Commanders' Carson Wentz, Raiders' Maxx Crosby, shine as practice intensity amps up

The NFL's 2022 training camp will hit top speed this week with a full slate of preseason games, and the intensity is ramping up in practices around the league. Tuesday was highlighted by promising performances from Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby and Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz, who showed better timing with his receivers.

Philadelphia Eagles receiver Quez Watkins also had a good day as he works to solidify a role on a deep unit, but second-year New York Giants receiver Kadarius Toney had another tough day in what has been an up-and-down camp.

The preseason schedule includes two games on Thursday, five on Friday, eight on Saturday and one on Sunday.

Here's what you need to know from camps across the league.

Washington Commanders: Quarterback Carson Wentz and the passing game have been inconsistent this summer as the Commanders work on their timing. Sometimes Wentz misfires; other times receivers run improper routes leading to off-target throws. But, on Tuesday, that group had one of its best days in camp.

Wentz was more on point with some of his throws, zipping one in to Terry McLaurin on an out route against tight coverage. Wentz threw more in rhythm during team drills, compared to past practices and capped one drive by connecting with receiver Dax Milne for a 20-yard touchdown in which he hit him in stride as he ran across to the corner of the end zone. Wentz also hit rookie Jahan Dotson for about 30 yards on a perfect throw down the right side. The passing game needs to keep progressing after an often bumpy start, but Tuesday was a good step. — John Keim
