The start of NFL free agency was quiet for the Washington Commanders, but business has quickly picked up for Adam Peters. And the general manager might have undone himself with another addition to the secondary.
After the Commanders' disappointing 5-12 season, the need for a serious roster overhaul was emphasized. Washington needed to get younger, faster, and stronger, especially on defense.
Welcome, Odafe Oweh. Welcome, Amik Robertson. Welcome, Leo Chenal and K'Lavon Chaisson. Now, welcome Nick Cross, who fills arguably Washington's biggest positional need of all.
Commanders are getting exactly what they needed in Nick Cross, and it's at an absolute bargain
Cross is a former DeMatha Catholic High School and University of Maryland product before being a third-round pick of the Indianapolis Colts in 2022.
