The Commanders are bringing back special teams ace Jeremy Reaves on a two-year deal, via @JFowlerESPN.
27; named a 1st-team All-Pro in 2022.
Tore his ACL in Week 5 last season.
6 seasons, all with WSH… Undrafted.
Heart and soul guy on teams. pic.twitter.com/VlGzn7gwNf— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
Reaves will be with his 3rd special teams coach, 3rd head coach, 3rd general manager and 2nd team owner. Incredible https://t.co/8NVZTKocts

Going on a hunch, but have a feeling Washington will sign: Austin Ekeler, Marcus Mariota, Tyler Biadasz, Dorance Armstrong, Dante Fowler Jr., Frankie Luvu, Nick Allegretti, Jeremy Chinn, Clelin Ferrell, Tyler Ott, Brandon McManus

The NFL’s new league year has begun. All the trades and free agent deals lined up in recent days can become official.
— MarkMaske (@MarkMaske) March 13, 2024
Top 5 Largest 2024 Cap hits among the 12 new Commanders free agents added:
$4.9M, DE Dorance Armstrong
$4.2M, C Tyler Biadasz
$3.9M, S Jeremy Chinn
$3.8M, LB Frankie Luvu
$3.6M, K Brandon McManus— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
The Commanders have $68.5M in cap space remaining, according to @Jason_OTC.
Said differently: Adam Peters and his staff can still do anything they want to do with any player that becomes available.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
Sources: #Seahawks perennial Pro Bowler and All-Pro LB Bobby Wagner is signing with the #Commanders on a 1-year deal worth a max value of $8.5M, a deal that includes $6M in guarantees.
Dan Quinn was with Wagner a decade ago in Seattle, now they’re back. A splash for Washington. pic.twitter.com/QPcsF0y9mt
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 13, 2024
Bobby Wagner had a career high and lead the league in tackles with 183 last season. He may be 33, but he’s far from being old and washed. London Fletcher was 32 when he signed here.
— Eric Sully (@CommandersRealm) March 13, 2024
Bobby Wagner does not come off the field. He played 98% of snaps last year at 32 years old. 99% the year before that. Special dude. Future HOFer. pic.twitter.com/nCp09KC7AR
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
I’m sure Wagner easily could’ve chosen a contender team but he chose Dan Quinn and the staff. This is awesome.
— Robbie Duncan (@CoachDuncanOL) March 13, 2024
Seattle, we’ve done this before. You know what it is. It’s always love. Until we meet again. I’m around

Commanders fans gotta be ecstatic
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) March 13, 2024
What if, and hear me out because this is a crazy idea, Dan Quinn and Joe Whitt Jr. used Jamin Davis more as a pass rusher?
What if Frankie Luvu and Jamin Davis moved all over the place and the Bobby Wagner acquisition freed them up to come downhill and hunt QBs more often. pic.twitter.com/Qx4aAvMYPu
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
Commanders signing Bobby Wagner means:
There’s a new sheriff in locker room.
They’ll move Luvu all over the place.
Jamin Davis is their 3rd LB.
Committing to neglected position in Rivera era.He’s only a year older than London Fletcher was when he came to DC.

REPORT: The #Commanders are re-signing veteran WR/PR Jamison Crowder to a one year deal, according to @JosinaAnderson pic.twitter.com/EMj9JzShTu

We asked @RandyMueller_ on what’s next for the Commanders:
“There’s still really good values out there… I don’t think this free agency pool is what it’s been in the past. I think it’s better.. They’ve gotten better, they’re not just flushing money because they have it.”
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
Former GM @RandyMueller_ on WSH’s strategy:
“Check as many boxes as you can prior to the draft so that you can take the best available players. When you start drafting to fill out a depth chart, that’s problematic. If you can solve issues before the draft, the draft can be used…
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
Former GM @RandyMueller_ tells us he would take either JJ McCarthy or Jayden Daniels at 2 if he was the Commanders.
First time we’ve had anybody tell us they’d heavily considered McCarthy with the 2nd pick.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 13, 2024
More from @mike_e_kaye on new Commanders LB/S Jeremy Chinn: “A guy that’s a tweener safety/linebacker…A seek and destroy player that should be close to the line…Not an interchangeable safety, he should be in the box…Sometimes versatility can be the enemy of progress.”
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) March 13, 2024
Talking with @mike_e_kaye about new Commanders LB Frankie Luvu: “That guy is a game changer and a play breaker…He is the ideal guy for a double A gap blitz…He’s extremely versatile…He can really make things happens…He will disrupt the offense more than he wont.”
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) March 13, 2024
The #Commanders are engaging in a massive roster overhaul. Have cut multiple starters. Have not re-signed any of their many free agents. Are bringing in a bunch of new players via free agency. That pause from Adam Peters appears to have been very telling. pic.twitter.com/x569AaAQDn

Dan Quinn can call this a “recalibration” all he wants but this is as rebuild-y of a rebuild as I’ve ever seen.#HTTC

Ben Johnson and Mike Macdonald weren’t getting these players. God works in mysterious ways. This is called The Quinn Effect.

#Chiefs TE Travis Kelce speaks greatly about his former teammate Nick Allegretti, whom now is with the #Commanders.

The Chargers have released Mike Williams. The move saves them about $20 million in salary cap space and puts them into cap compliance.

Another change of heart: after agreeing to a deal with the 49ers, former Chargers and Vikings LB Eric Kendricks has decided to go to the Dallas Cowboys instead, per sources. Mike Zimmer wanted Kendricks to help run his defense and Kendricks preferred to play in Dallas. https://t.co/NfBUIPT0c6
