The Tennessee Titans were not expected to bring free-agent tight end Chig Okonkwo back this offseason. Even though he was arguably their most well-known player on an expiring contract, the Titans had already signaled their intentions. They signed tight end Daniel Bellinger to a lucrative contract, paving the way for Okonkwo's departure.
Okonkwo intends to sign with the Washington Commanders, the NFL Network reported on Wednesday. He'll reunite with Treylon Burks as a new weapon for rising quarterback Jayden Daniels. Okonkwo should be a productive member of the Commanders' passing offense.
Terms of the contract were released.
