The Washington Command is released veteran cornerback, Marcion Latamore, on Friday, after a short and rocky time with the team. They traded several draft picks to the New Orleans Saints at the 2024 trade deadline to get the four-time Pro Bowl player. But it did. Not work out over the past 1.5 years. The injuries hit Latamore hard, including an ACL tear midway through last season, which sealed his fate well before the 2026 roster plans. His contract was set to eat up $18.5 million against the salary cap. Now the commanders have even more breathing room financially, sitting at $87 million in cap space for next year after some low cost. Resignings on the offensive line. Deals for guys like Andrew Wiley, at $3.2 million, and an extension for Nick Allegretti, help keep things efficient. Free agency heats up soon, with teams able to negotiate starting Monday and deals official
