Daily Slop - 17 Jul 25 - Commanders sign a situational pass rusher on a one-year deal
Briefly

The Washington Commanders are focusing on upgrading their offensive line and defense during the offseason. They acquired left tackle Laremy Tunsil from the Houston Texans to bolster protection for quarterback Jayden Daniels, despite Tunsil's penalties last season. Tunsil is recognized as an elite edge protector, aiding in Washington's goal of supporting Daniels. Additionally, they signed Von Miller, a seasoned pass rusher with a successful history, hoping he can emulate previous success in leading a team to a Super Bowl victory.
Acquiring Tunsil via trade from the Houston Texans was the major statement of intent Peters had in mind. He’s among the league’s best edge protectors, especially on passing downs.
Miller played the past three seasons with the Buffalo Bills, recording 14 sacks - eight in his first season and six last year.
Washington hopes he can do what he did for the Los Angeles Rams in the 2021 season: serve as a final piece in a Super Bowl title run.
At his best, Tunsil is still an elite left tackle. He had a relatively tough season in 2024, taking a ton of penalties.
