Rotoworld Player News

Leo Chenal

WAS Linebacker #54

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Commanders agreed to terms with LB Leo Chenal, formerly of the Chiefs, on a three-year, $24.75 million contract.

The veteran linebacker notched 44 starts across 65 appearances for the Chiefs while on his rookie contract, a stretch that also included two Super Bowl wins. Chenal averaged 57 tackles and 1.8 sacks per season those four years and earns a significant raise with his new franchise. It is unclear where he is likeliest to play considering the team already has Frankie Luvu and Bobby Wagner, but the kind of money invested hints at significant playing time.
Tim Settle

WAS Defensive Tackle #98

Commanders agreed to terms with DT Tim Settle, formerly of the Texans, on a three-year, $24 million contract.

Settle was enjoying a great season for the Texans in 2025 before suffering a Lisfranc injury in December. This is a strong commitment in light of that fact, and Settle may be rehabbing for most of the offseason. Settle had a career-high 78.0 PFF pass rush grade for the Texans in 2025 and returns to the team that drafted him in 2018.
Odafe Oweh

WAS Outside Linebacker #98

Commanders agreed to terms with EDGE Odafe Oweh, formerly of the Chargers, to a four-year, $100 million contract.

$68 million of this is guaranteed per Adam Schefter. Oweh did indeed hit the $25 million mark that Daniel Popper believed could lead to the Chargers letting him walk. The 27-year-old EDGE had 7.5 sacks in 12 games with the Chargers last year and will now try to revitalize Washington’s lagging pass rush. He’s been more of a complementary rusher so far — this is a contract that says the Commanders want him to be the main man.
Marcus Mariota

WAS Quarterback #8

Commanders re-signed QB Marcus Mariota to a one-year, $7 million contract.

He’ll remain the backup behind Jayden Daniels in Washington. Mariota runs enough to remain a stable backup and superflex QB2 when he is on the field. Things will change a bit in Washington in 2026 without Kliff Kingsbury, but Mariota is in a decent spot to find work behind Daniels and it’s a worthwhile investment for the Commanders.
Amik Robertson

WAS Cornerback #21

Commanders agreed to terms with CB Amik Robertson, formerly of the Lions, on a two-year, $16 million contract.

The deal includes $9.3 million guaranteed. 27-year-old Robertson is not quite an every-down player, but he is capable of playing both inside and out. At 5-foot-9, 183 pounds, he is ideally a slot man. That is where he spent most of 2024 before bouncing around more last year. Robertson is durable, appearing in all 17 games each of the past four years. He’s a solid player to have fill out your cornerback rotation.
Laremy Tunsil

WAS Tackle #78

Commanders signed LT Laremy Tunsil to a two-year, $60.2 million contract extension.

Tunsil had one year remaining on his previous deal but will now remain under contract through the 2028 season. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Tunsil will receive $61.5 million in guaranteed money, which includes a record $32.5 million signing bonus for an offensive lineman. In his first season with the Commanders, Tunsil appeared on 802 snaps while allowing just 15 QB pressures and two sacks, per PFF. He’ll protect Jayden Daniels’ blindside for the foreseeable future and should continue to play at a high level throughout the duration of this deal.
Kenneth Walker

SEA Running Back #9

The Athletic’s Dan Duggan believes Kenneth Walker’s market “could be in the $15M/year range.”

If so, the Giants “can’t/won’t go there,” per Duggan. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler believes the Titans, Chiefs, Broncos, and Commanders — as well as the incumbent Seahawks — are teams to watch for Walker, who figures to be the belle of the running back free-agent market ball. Coming off his Super Bowl MVP, we wouldn’t be totally surprised if the market got this high for Walker, but it should be noted that Fowler’s prediction was a market more in the range of $12 million a season.
Mike Evans

TB Wide Receiver #13

Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reports the Chargers, Commanders, Giants, and 49ers have expressed interest in signing Mike Evans.

This is the majority of the list that Jonathan Jones had earlier this week, minus the Bills who have since acquired DJ Moore. Given the lack of an established franchise quarterback we’d be surprised if the Giants made it to the end of Evans’ deliberations. The other three teams all make plenty of sense, though it should be noted that several of the sourced men have cautioned against the idea that Evans would leave.
Rico Dowdle

CAR Running Back #5

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Rico Dowdle has been linked to the Commanders “by some people around the league.”

Vaguer than we’d prefer from Fowler, but given the fact the Commanders have nothing ahead of “Bill” Croskey-Merritt on the depth chart, bringing in a head of a committee makes plenty of sense. Dowdle appears to be behind Travis Etienne Jr. and Kenneth Walker on the free agency market, but should still do well for himself after a strong few months with the Panthers.
Romeo Doubs

GB Wide Receiver #87

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler links the Patriots, Commanders, Titans, and 49ers to WR Romeo Doubs.

Doubs, who will definitely hit the market per Fowler, likely profiles as the second-best receiver after Alec Pierce and could be in for a pretty big payday of his own. This is essentially the same list of teams that have been linked to Pierce by Fowler in the column minus the Raiders. Doubs is entering his age-26 season in 2026 and should retain value throughout his free-agent contract.
