Cosmi is one of the few building block players left over from the old regime that new GM Adam Peters and HC Dan Quinn feel confident investing in at this point, and for good reason. He’s currently their best offensive lineman and a quality starter at guard. 

Cosmi, 25, was drafted by the Commanders with the No. 51 overall pick in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Texas. 

He was entering the final year of a four-year, $8.178 million rookie contract that included a $2,178,596 signing bonus. 

In 2023, Cosmi appeared in and started all 17 games for the Commanders at right guard. Pro Football Focus had him graded as the No. 4 guard out of 79 qualifying players.
