The Washington Commanders completed their fourth training camp practice Saturday. It was their third open practice of camp. For all 32 NFL teams, Saturday was “Back Together Saturday,” celebrating the return of football, with each team leading their own fan events.
Commanders training camp was packed. The team estimated 10,000 fans were in attendance for Saturday’s practice, earning praise from multiple players and head coach Ron Rivera. Rivera appreciates the fans after a difficult few years and understands their importance to the team’s success.
With so many fans attending Ashburn’s practice Saturday, we’ve found some of the top fan reactions from around Twitter.

The turnout and energy from fans attending #Commanders Training Camp the last three days have been tremendous. Washington this coming season could have a legitimate home-field advantage for the first time in years.

Shoutout to everyone that took time to say hey today. Half the day was content, and the other half was enjoying it as a fan since today was my last training camp. Much love to everyone! This is the best fan base in the NFL! #HTTC

Notably ..the Washington Commanders slander has gone radio silent since Dan Snyder left the building, both literally and figuratively league wide including opposing team fans.

Dude, there is so much positivity coming from this change in ownership. This is ground floor IPO stuff. We are watching before our eyes.
Think about how pumped the players feel. This is awesome!!!
They were expecting 10K fans today!!https://t.co/Z0QBegw0Ys

Yeah the vibe is much different and this being said is much appreciated for sure. It wasn’t just about wins vs loses. We knew this team never gave up even when times made it feel they should. The cloud is gone and the focus is directed where it should be…..on field! Finally! https://t.co/HDHHV7n1pm
