MAR 18 COMMANDERS SIGN MICHAEL DAVIS The Washington Commanders continue to add to their secondary.

According to the team, former Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Michael Davis is heading to the nation’s capital.

Davis, 29, spent his first seven NFL seasons with the Chargers after going undrafted in 2017. He recorded 62 tackles and an interception last season in Los Angeles.

MAR 17 COMMANDERS GET IGBINOGHENE Another member of Dan Quinn’s Dallas Cowboys defense is making the move to the nation’s capital.

According to ESPN’s John Keim, the Commanders are signing cornerback Noah Igbinoghene.

Igbinoghene, 24, was a first-round draft pick by the Miami Dolphins in 2020 and spent three years there before a trade ahead of last season to the Cowboys.

MAR 13 COMMANDERS BRING BACK REAVES The Washington Commanders have retained one of their own free agents.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Commanders are signing Pro Bowl special teams contributor Jeremy Reaves to a two-year deal.

Reaves is the first in-house free agent the Commanders are bringing back on a new deal.

MAR 12 COMMANERS SIGN CHINN After signing one Carolina Panthers defender in linebacker Frankie Luvu, the Washington Commanders are signing another player away from their defense.

Bleacher Report insider Jordan Schultz reported that the Commanders are signing former Panthers safety Jeremy Chinn to a one-year deal worth $5.1 million. He’ll reunite with Luvu, who signed a three-year deal with Washington on Monday.

Chinn has struggled to stay on the field in the last two seasons, combining as he played 23 games and had 100 tackles, two tackles for loss and one quarterback hit. In the two seasons prior, Chinn appeared to be on his way to becoming one of the best safeties in football. He had over 100 tackles alone in both seasons, along with two interceptions, three forced fumbles, including two that he ran back for touchdowns and 10 quarterback hits.

The signing of Chinn continues the Commanders’ remodeling of their defense. Washington has also agreed to deals with pass rushers Dorance Armstrong Jr., Dante Fowler Jr., Clelin Ferrell and Luvu, who will play linebacker.

MAR 12 COMMANDERS SIGN MARIOTA The Washington Commanders are adding to their quarterback room.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the team is signing Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Marcus Mariota to a one-year deal worth up to $10 million.

Mariota, 30, is playing for his fourth team in as many years and could very likely be the backup quarterback for the team this season.

MAR 11 COMMANDERS SIGN MCMANUS The Washington Commanders have their kicker.

Former NFL defensive back Jason McCourty tweeted that Brandon McManus told him that he signed a one-year deal with the Commanders.

McManus, who turns 33 this summer, played nine seasons with the Denver Broncos before spending last year with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

MAR 11 COMMANDERS SIGN COWBOYS’ ARMSTRONG The Washington Commanders are on the board in free agency.

Bleacher Report insider Jordan Schultz reported that the Commanders are signing pass rusher Dorance Armstrong Jr.

He had 7.5 sacks last season plus 12 quarterback hits and seven tackles for loss last season. In 2022, he set career highs with 8.5 sacks, 16 quarterback hits and 10 tackles for loss.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler is reporting that the contract is worth up to $45 million for three years.

The Commanders were last in points and passing yards allowed per game last season. Reuniting Armstrong Jr. with head coach Dan Quinn should go a long way toward fortifying one of the NFL’s more disappointing units last season.

MAR 6 COMMANDERS SIGN ERTZ The Washington Commanders are bringing a former Pro Bowl tight end back to the NFC East.

According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, the Commanders are signing veteran tight end Zach Ertz to a one-year deal worth $5 million.

Ertz, 33, played seven games for the Arizona Cardinals last season before he was cut. He signed with the Detroit Lions’ practice squad during the playoffs, but never appeared in a game for them.

Ertz has experience with offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury from their days in Arizona.

MAR 2 WASHINGTON COMMANDERS PLANNING TO RELEASE NICK GATES: ESPN is reporting that center Nick Gates has been told he’ll be released by the team at the start of the new league year.

According to the report Gates is still owed $1.99 million in the coming year, and will now look for another new team after jumping to Washington from the New York Giants in 2023.
