Commanders Re-Sign Left Tackle Laremy Tunsil to a 2-Year Contract, AP Source Says

Laremy Tunsil’s $60.2 million extension includes a record $32.5 million signing bonus, making him the NFL’s highest-paid offensive lineman through 2028, securing protection for QB Jayden Daniels.

  • On Monday, the Commanders signed Laremy Tunsil to a two-year extension through 2028, ESPN's Adam Schefter and WUSA9 reported.
  • Adam Peters accelerated talks to avoid a protracted summer standoff, securing Tunsil beyond next season despite his remaining contract year.
  • The deal includes $61.5 million in guarantees and a record $32.5 million signing bonus, which pays more than half of Tunsil's contract value upon signing.
  • The extension secures Daniels' blindside and stabilizes the offensive line, solidifying protection with Nick Allegretti and Andrew Wylie also re-signing.
  • The deal makes Laremy Tunsil the first NFL offensive lineman to average $30 million per year, setting new pay benchmarks, with a Pro Football Focus grade of 84.7 last season.
