Preseason ends 3-41 in Baltimore — cutdown week ahead

Dress rehearsals over

The Baltimore Ravens beat the Washington Commanders 41-3 on Friday, Aug. 28 at M&T Bank Stadium — Preseason Week 3, the last exhibition before roster cuts.

Baltimore scored early and often. Washington’s points came on a field goal. The public wire framed it as a Ravens blowout with a side note on Baltimore’s kicking; Sport DMV is not inventing depth-chart verdicts from one August night.

What matters for Ashburn now is cutdown week — getting from the preseason roster to the 53. Confirm official moves on the club site and league transactions board. Friday’s live note was the in-progress desk. The Commanders page is the hub.
