The Washington Commanders announced a series of roster moves on Monday, adjusting their practice squad ahead of Week 3.
With the median days a home is on the market inching up to 23 – a 27.8% increase over July 2025 – only 1,392 closed sales in August 2025, and 4,336 active listings in Montgomery County, MD and Washington, D.C., housing inventory is plentiful in the region, according to new data from the Greater Capital Area Association of REALTORS® (GCAAR).
Metro is proposing changes to Rockville’s Twinbrook Station’s transit facilities to enable joint development, create a transit plaza, and increase ridership. The proposed changes include the removal of the 164-space Park & Ride surface lot and the relocation of the bus loop and Kiss and Ride facilities on the west side of the site to accommodate future development.
The Washington Metro is known for its engineering feats, and while the Wheaton station holds the distinction of having the longest single-span escalator in the Western Hemisphere, the system’s elevators boast impressive records of their own. At Forest Glen (located in Silver Spring, Maryland), riders take the longest elevator trip in the DC Metro system… a vertical rise of 196 feet.

The Washington Commanders have signed veteran running back Chase Edmonds to their practice squad following the devastating injury to Austin Ekeler, who suffered a torn Achilles in last week’s loss to the Green Bay Packers. The injury, confirmed by MRI, will sideline Ekeler for the remainder of the 2025 season and raises questions about whether the 30-year-old back will be able to return to the field at all. The signing of Edmonds was first reported by Nicki Jhabvala.
