The Baltimore Ravens and Washington Commanders are set to complete their respective preseasons with the “Battle of the Beltway,” as is typically tradition.
The game will represent a final opportunity for both Jesse Minter and Dan Quinn’s squads to answer key questions they have before the start of the season.

For the Ravens, it will be about exactly where rookie receivers Ja’Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt fit into the team’s receiver rotation. The former has enjoyed a particularly good training camp and preseason, and both have opportunities to stake a claim to more playing time alongside Zay Flowers.
The Commanders will be focused on evaluating depth quarterback Sam Hartman and Athan Kaliakmanis. Backup Marcus Mariota is dealing with a knee injury but is expected to be ready for Week 1. However, if both Hartman and Kaliakmanis, a seventh-round rookie, play well, that could encourage Washington to keep four quarterbacks temporarily, at least as they assess Mariota’s fitness for the season opener.
Washington will also continue to evaluate the pecking order in its running back room, where rookies Kaytron Allen and Robert Henry Jr. are battling for roster spots.
Here’s what to know about the Commanders vs. Ravens preseason Week 3 game, and how to watch it.
