As Laremy Tunsil Needs Surgery, the Commanders Turn to Brandon Coleman at Left Tackle
Dan Quinn said Brandon Coleman will replace Tunsil, who needs surgery and could miss most of the season after a torn triceps in practice.
- On Monday, Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn confirmed that Brandon Coleman will be the starting left tackle after Laremy Tunsil underwent surgery for a torn triceps injury suffered in Saturday's practice.
- Tunsil, a five-time Pro Bowler, suffered the torn triceps during a one-on-one drill with Commanders edge rusher Odafe Oweh, an injury that forces him to miss most or all of the regular season.
- Washington recently signed Tunsil to a two-year, $61.5 million contract extension, regarding him as crucial to quarterback Jayden Daniels' protection; Coleman, 25, has started 17 of 28 games since being drafted in 2024.
- Quinn expressed confidence in Coleman, stating, " has played a lot of winning football at left tackle here, and we know he's ready for it," while the team will not seek outside replacements.
- Recovery for a torn triceps typically ranges from four to seven months, though the Commanders hope the five-time Pro Bowler will return to action at some point this season.
