There will be many changes to the Washington Commanders before the 2026 campaign begins. They're already underway, with David Blough replacing Kliff Kingsbury as offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. also being shown the door. Expect these alterations to continue on the playing personnel side. General manager Adam Peters has a significant amount of hard work ahead, and another roster overhaul seems extremely likely.
Peters' decision to sacrifice considerable draft compensation to the Houston Texans for Laremy Tunsil was an outstanding piece of business. The Commanders have problems - lots of them - but the five-time Pro Bowl left tackle has been nothing short of exceptional, almost from start to finish. Tunsil is a stone wall on the blindside. In 564 snaps this season, the former Ole Miss enforcer has given up just one sack, seven penalties, and 12 total pressures.
