0:00It's March 9th. Here's your NFL news in 2 minutes, subscribe to stay locked in all season. The Washington Commanders kicked off their 2026 off season by signing cornerback Amick Robertson from the Detroit Lions. It's a two-year deal worth $16 million with $9.3 million guaranteed. This move comes early in free agency, and while it's not a splashy name, it fits their needs perfectly. Robertson turns 28 in July, so he's right in his prime. Some fans might hope for a bigger star, but there's real upside here. The Commanders have struggled at slot corner, where Mike St. Restill has had a tough time. At 5 feet 9 and 183 pounds, Robertson could slide right into that role. Meanwhile, his track record speaks for itself. Drafted in the fourth round by the Raiders, back in 2020, he spent four seasons there before two years with the Lions. Over six NFL years, he started 35 games with five interceptions, 35 passes defended, and
