Tunsil's production was nothing short of elite. His pass-blocking was as advertised, providing exceptional protection in front of either Jayden Daniels or Marcus Mariota. The Ole Miss product's run-blocking was dominant, a supposed weakness in his game. While the penalty numbers were a little too high, the edge force brought All-Pro-caliber consistency to the table in a lost season.
As the offense continues to build around Jayden Daniels, the Washington Commanders will continue to search for ways to add speed, flexibility, and mismatch potential to the middle of their offense. With an expected emphasis on spacing, pre-snap disguise, and forcing defenses into unfavorable personnel decisions from offensive coordinator David Blough in 2026, Washington profiles as a strong landing spot for an athletic tight end who can function as a movable chess piece.
Last season, the 29-year-old was one of the worst starting cornerbacks in the league with 27 tackles and one interception in nine games, before suffering a torn left ACL. [Marshon] Lattimore still has one year left on his contract, but there's no guaranteed money, so the Commanders could easily cut him. If he wants to continue playing in the NFL, he would be better off putting his time in Washington behind him.
