NFL Rumors: Commanders Expected to Go 'All-In' in 2025 Free Agency After Playoff Run

The Washington Commanders are expected to be aggressive this offseason to improve the team's defense and take advantage of quarterback Jayden Daniels' rookie contract window, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano.

"Expect the Commanders to be aggressive this offseason in pursuing roster upgrades on defense," Graziano began.

"Much like the Texans last year after C.J. Stroud's dazzling rookie season, Washington believes it has something special in quarterback Jayden Daniels and wants to maximize his rookie-contract window. Getting to the NFC Championship Game in Daniels' first year only makes Washington more likely to get aggressive for someone like Garrett if and when Cleveland decides to move him.

"Washington needs a lot of work on defense, and don't be surprised to see the team stretch for an impact player or two in the coming months. The Commanders were 19th in defensive EPA this season."

The Commanders tripled their win total from four to 12 this season, reaching the NFC Championship Game for the first time since 1991. So it makes sense for general manager Adam Peters to go for it with the team coming just one win away from reaching a Super Bowl.
