EspañolLaremy Tunsil is going to get big money.
Tunsil, the Washington Commanders' left tackle, is coming up on the final season of his current contract. GM Adam Peters, when meeting with the media on Tuesday at the NFL combine, was not shy about discussing Tunsil and the Commanders. Peters stated that he has already discussed a contract extension with Tunsil's representatives.
Did you catch what Peters also added? Peters stated that the talks with Tunsil's team have been favorable. You recall last offseason how Peters' conversations with Terry McLaurin's team were neither favorable nor productive. What we learned in time was that those talks were not realistic either, until much later in the process when the McLaurin camp finally saw the reality of the situation.
Peters wants to get a job done prior to the 2026 season. He doesn't want it to be a distraction like the Terry McLaurin contract was a distraction in 2025. McLaurin was a good receiver coming into the 2025 season. But Tunsil is actually one of the more elite offensive tackles in the NFL right now. Peters knows he must get Tunsil inked now, before this upcoming training camp is launched.

The Commanders have an elite tackle. What's more, he is an elite left tackle. Regarding pass block pressure rate allowed (PBPRA), "Grant and Danny" on 106.7 The Fan, Wednesday afternoon, threw out a stat that caught my attention. Paulsen was reading the stats and saw that Tunsil is the best in PBPRA in the NFL since 2023. Tristan Wirfs 3.5%, Penei Sewell 3.7, Garett Bolles 3.8, and Lane Johnson 4.1. Tunsil at left tackle came in at 3.4%.
You bet Peters is talking to the Tunsil camp. Let's hope there is more realistic dialogue between the two parties this offseason than last offseason.
