"And it hints at much bigger moves upcoming in the not-too-distant future. According to Michael Ginnitti from Spotrac, the Commanders restructured left tackle Laremy Tunsil's contract, converting $18 million of his salary into a signing bonus while also adding three void years onto the deal. This created an additional $14.4 million in salary-cap space in 2025, taking Washington's available financial resources to $31.19 million."
"This is significant. Make no mistake about that. It confirms that the Commanders see Tunsil as a huge part of their plans, potentially setting themselves up to offer the five-time Pro Bowler another lucrative contract extension at season's end. It's also a clear sign that Peters may have something else up his sleeve to give Washington's playoff aspirations a big shot in the arm. Just what that'll be is anyone's guess."
The Commanders restructured Laremy Tunsil's contract by converting $18 million of salary into a signing bonus and adding three void years, creating $14.4 million in 2025 cap space and increasing available cap to $31.19 million. The move signals commitment to Tunsil and positions the team to pursue a potential lucrative extension for the five-time Pro Bowler after the season. General manager Adam Peters gained flexibility to pursue additional roster upgrades, including trades, while operating in a win-now mode despite holding six draft picks. The timing before a primetime game adds intrigue ahead of a mini-bye week.
