David Bailey Smiles Over Potential Commanders Deal

Texas Tech edge rusher David Bailey was all smiles when asked about a potential move to the Washington Commanders, saying he would play anywhere for the team.

Bailey, a 12.5‑sack All‑American, met with the Commanders during the 2026 NFL Combine and expressed willingness to play as a pass rusher, special teams, or any role. Washington, holding the No. 7 pick, is targeting him among other prospects like Sonny Styles, Rueben Bain Jr., Jeremiyah Love, and Caleb Downs.
