About Ben Standig
About Last Man Standig
After six incredible years covering the Washington Commanders for The Athletic, I, Ben Standig, am launching something new, but still familiar. Last Man Standig, already the name of my established podcast, is now the new home for all things Commanders: insider reporting, in-depth analysis, interviews, roster intel, all things Jayden Daniels, and whatever else helps make sense of one of the NFL’s most compelling franchises.
If you’ve followed my work, you know the goal has never been to just track the news —it’s to explain what it means. Whether I’m breaking a story, speaking with decision-makers, or watching practice from the sidelines, I strive to bring context, clarity, and a touch of candor to everything I do. That won’t change here.
It’s not about the platform.
