Mike Garafolo reports that Commanders LT Laremy Tunsil will have his shoulder/neck injury evaluated and tested, adding that he would not be surprised if Tunsil missed time.
Garafolo notes that the test results will still determine the outcome, and there seems to be no panic about the injury.
Tunsil recently signed a two-year, $60.2 million extension back in March.
Tunsil, 31, is a former first-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $12,457,650 rookie contract and set to make a base salary of $2,148,771 for the 2019 season when the Dolphins picked up his fifth-year option.
The Dolphins traded Tunsil to the Texans in 2019, and he later agreed to a three-year, $66 million contract with Houston that included $50 million guaranteed. He re-signed to a three-year, $75 million extension in March of 2022.
Tunsil was due base salaries of $20.95 million in each of the final two years of his deal. He was traded to Washington last offseason with a 2025 fourth-round pick for a 2025 third-round pick, a 2025 seventh-round pick, a 2026 second-round pick, and a 2026 fourth-round pick.
In 2025, Tunsil appeared in 14 games for the Commanders and made 14 starts at left tackle.
