The Washington Commanders signed 12 new players over the first wave of free agency. General manager Adam Peters is also busy working out agreements with his own veteran players who could have a future with the club in 2026.
Veteran backup quarterback Marcus Mariota was the first when legal tampering opened. Starting left guard Chris Paul penned a new one-year deal after seeing what else was out there on the market. Treylon Burks, Andrew Wylie, and Trent Scott are others, which solidifies depth and provides more flexibility for Peters when the 2026 NFL Draft rolls around.
