The only thing the Washington Commanders have not done this offseason to protect starting quarterback Jayden Daniels is to bubble wrap him and lock him in head coach Dan Quinn's office until training camp starts.
The Commanders' interest in protecting Daniels was evident on Monday when they announced their trade with the Houston Texans for Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil. Washington boldly gave up four draft picks to secure the Tunsil's services.
Tunsil is the second big player the Commanders traded for. Earlier this winter, during the NFL Scouting Combine, Washington traded for former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel. He gives Daniels another weapon on the outside.
Needless to say, Daniels is very pleased with the blockbuster move that went official on Saturday. He took to social media to welcome the Tunsil to the District.
"Welcome to the squad!!!@kingtunsil", Daniels posted in his 4-word response.
The Commanders also re-signed tight end John Bates, who is one of the better blocking tight ends in the league. He helps pave the way for running back Brian Robinson and is one of Daniels line of protection.
Speaking of tight ends, the Commanders also re-signed their primary tight end Zach Ertz. Ertz is more of a receiving tight end and was one of Daniels' most reliable targets in 2024. He was second on the team in receptions, yards and receiving touchdowns.
Daniels and the Commanders took the league by storm in 2024 as they made the playoffs and made it all the way to the NFC Championship Game against the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
