Commanders' Bold Offseason Moves, Armstrong's Contract Year

About this episode

The Washington Commanders, after a disappointing 2025 season, have made significant offseason moves to rebuild their defense, signing fourteen free agents, drafting six players, and eyeing more undrafted talent. General manager Adam Peters prioritized edge rushers, signing Odafe Oweh to a four-year, $100 million deal and adding KLavon Chaisson and Charles Omenihu. The pressure is on for head coach Dan Quinn and Peters, as another poor performance could lead to Quinns dismissal and increased scrutiny for Peters. Defensive end Dorance Armstrong Junior, recovering from a knee injury, is in a contract year and faces increased competition with the new additions to the depth chart. The Commanders appear reloaded, but players must elevate their performance to secure their spots in training camp.
