The Washington Commanders suffered a significant setback as left tackle Laremy Tunsil tore his triceps during practice, likely requiring surgery and sidelining him for a substantial portion of the upcoming season. Tunsil, who started 14 games in 2025 after joining from the Houston Texans, recently signed a two-year, $60.2 million contract extension, making him the highest-paid offensive lineman. The team, looking to recover from a disappointing 5-12 season, will need to adapt without their key protector. Tunsil was drafted 13th overall in 2016 and has made a notable impact throughout his career.
