Tunsil was injured during Saturday’s practice while taking part in a one-on-one pass rush drill. He was taken off the practice field after being in obvious pain and discomfort. 

In terms of the options to replace Tunsil, Adam Schefter mentions that Andrew Wylie is a name to watch along with Brandon Coleman, who was Washington’s left tackle in 2024.

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.
