0:00It's March 28th, from kickoff to the final whistle. This is NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. The Washington commanders are shaking up their roster after a rough 2025-26 season that fell short of expectations. They're letting go of big names like Cornerback Martian Latamore and wide receiver Debo Samuel. And it looks like veteran linebacker Bobby Wagner might be next after just two years with the team. To beef up their linebacker spot, the commanders grab Leo Chanau from the Kansas City Chiefs, a two-time Super Bowl winner who's set to start in. The middle. With Frankie Luvu and Jordan Maggie sticking around that crowds out Wagner, pushing him toward free agency. Down in Tapabay, the Buccaneers just lost franchise icon Lavante David to retirement after 15 years. Analysts by Sad Yusuf from the Athletic see Wagner as the perfect replacement, calling him a future Hall of Famer who can still bring heat despite.
1:00Turning 30 so soon, Wagner stacked a monster resume over 218 games, 2,000 tackles, 39.5 sacks, 15 picks, 11 all pro, nods, and 10 pro bowls plus that Super Bowl ring from Seattle. He's shown some coverage dips lately, but his tackle machine stays elite. Meanwhile, Washington's linebacker crew now rolls with vets like Nick Belor in his 16th season. Luvu in his 9th, Chanau in his 5th, and younger guys like Jordan McGee, Alcajo, and K. Madrano. As teams finalize spots, keep eyes on where Wagner lands to plug that Bucks gap.
