Tyler Biadasz was released, leaving the center role open for 2026. Veteran Nick Allegretti is likely to receive the first opportunity to start. Sam Cosmi backed Allegretti during organized team activities, citing intelligence and versatility as key reasons he can win the No. 1 job and perform at a high level. Allegretti struggled at guard in his first two years in Washington but improved at center when Biadasz sat out late in the 2025 season. General manager Adam Peters responded with drastic action after that period. Some media reports claim Peters misread the center market, with Tyler Linderbaum reportedly a top target but not signed due to the Las Vegas Raiders’ market-resetting offer. Allegretti could benefit from a smooth transition into offensive coordinator David Blough’s new blocking concepts.
""Nick's a really, really intelligent guy. He's a smart dude, and you've got to be pretty smart to play center. I always say, if you can play guard really well, you can play center. He was able to do it. I have full confidence in his ability to play center at a high level.""
