The Washington Commanders made a stunning move at the start of free agency, acquiring Houston Texans Pro Bowl offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil in a trade.

The deal sent Tunsil to the nation's capital while the Commanders had to surrender a 2025 third-round pick, a 2025 seventh-round pick, a 2026 second-round pick, and a 2026 fourth-round pick.

Tunsil's former head coach DeMeco Ryans had nothing but great things to say about his former offensive tackle.

"They're getting one of the top one-on-one pass protectors in the NFL. It will definitely benefit Jayden having a guy he knows can protect his blind side," Ryans said via ESPN insider John Keim.

Having Tunsil protect Daniels' blindside will make him feel extremely comfortable staying in the pocket, allowing him to make more sound decisions that could lead to more scoring drives to the Commanders, which ultimately makes the team that much better.
