We’ve tendered a qualifying offer to restricted free agent Jeremy Reaves
— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) March 14, 2023
Additionally, we've released RB J.D. McKissic pic.twitter.com/c7xjAqUGAO
On Jeremy Reaves:
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) March 14, 2023
* The Commanders used an original-round tender on the Pro Bowler (roughly $2.63M).
* While he can sign an offer sheet elsewhere, Washington has the right to match any offer
* The two sides have discussed an extension beyond terms of the tender
By releasing McKissic, Washington will save $1.23 million on the salary cap. Not about talent/production; neck injuries the last two years. A good guy in the locker room with teammates. Vocal guy on the field; made practice fun for teammates because of it.

Last weekend against Atlanta, J.D. McKissic scored one of the best game-winning touchdowns you will ever see!! #NFL pic.twitter.com/N8izrKjh6q

The #Steelers agreed to terms with former #Commanders LB Cole Holcomb earlier this week on a three-year deal pending physical, per source.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) March 15, 2023
Holcomb, 26, has started 48 games for Washington. A big addition to Pittsburgh’s defense. pic.twitter.com/iiquOESnsp

Taylor Heinicke's story is unreal:
— Joe Pompliano (@JoePompliano) March 14, 2023
• Undrafted out of college
• Cut by 5 teams in 4 years
• Backup QB in the XFL
• Slept on sister's couch
• Signed to WFT's practice squad
• Started 24 games in 2 years
And now he has a $20 million deal with his hometown Atlanta Falcons. pic.twitter.com/dlcvkzA5fj
Taylor Heinicke will go down as one of the coolest guys we got to cover. Happy that he gets to go home to play in Georgia and happy that he’s getting paid handsomely to do so. Someone let the pylons in Atlanta know to keep their heads on a swivel pic.twitter.com/zpp271DVBy

The Taylor Heinicke video that he posted to Instagram thanking Washington and the fans, what a bunch of amazing memories! THANK YOU, Taylor for making us believe.

And personally, thank you for motivating me to believe in myself and follow my dreams pic.twitter.com/wIPQEMgAQZ
Taylor Heinicke’s rise in DC is an incredible story. From extra covid-QB nobody had heard of, to on the field, to starting a playoff game in the span of a few weeks. And he balled out in the playoffs.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 14, 2023
Gamer. Gutsy. They kept trying to upgrade and couldn’t. Says a lot about him.
I also really like a domed stadium for Heinicke based on his arm strength and how cold weather and wind could hinder him late-season, outdoors.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 14, 2023
All of his home games indoors. New Orleans plays in a dome in his division, too. It’s never cold in TB, also in division. Makes sense.

My power rankings of 10 veteran backup QBs (most to least interested in) the Commanders could add in FA:
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 14, 2023
1 Jacoby Brissett
2 Andy Dalton
3 Gardner Minshew
4 Cooper Rush
5 Teddy Bridgewater
6 Kyle Allen
7 Jeff Driskel
8 Drew Lock
9 Marcus Mariota
10 Baker Mayfield
Notes on the Commanders and the QB market, which has thinned out since the start of FA, but still some notable choices for what Washington seeks. pic.twitter.com/9AYsL78QrK

The Commanders were the team that checked in on Chad Henne, a source said.

The Washington Commanders have informed long-time OL coach John Matsko that he will be replaced as the team is moving in a different direction, per source.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) March 14, 2023
Good point by @Sam4TR on the show just now:
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 14, 2023
John Matsko was at the NFL Combine with the Commanders and helped lead their interviews with o-linemen. 19 of their 45 interviews were with OL. Odd timing for him to 'part ways' today.
ESPN's @SethWalder seemed to view the Andrew Wylie addition favorably, giving the Commanders an A- on the acquisition.

While this part is true, I haven't heard anything beyond yesterday. By last night, the trade rumors involving the Commanders had fizzled. https://t.co/8tCQCgjPUF
— Ken Johannesen (@BurgundyBurner) March 14, 2023
With Logan Paulsen as we discuss the newest Commanders; watched some film on them, losing Heinicke, Cosmi to RG. Also: I discuss why Matsko was fired and QB names to watch. More. @ESPNRichmond https://t.co/rqEABtsdl5
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 15, 2023
The addition of Mitchell Rales to Josh Harris's bid gives Daniel Snyder an attractive non-Bezos option, as some hold on to hopes for clarity on the Commanders sale by the league meeting. From @lizclarketweet and me.... https://t.co/3qvilElvwo

Another big trade! The #Colts are sending five-time Pro Bowl CB Stephon Gilmore to the #Cowboys for a 2023 fifth-round compensatory pick, sources tell me and @RapSheet. pic.twitter.com/K1LN0oit7L

Trade compensation: Giants are sending a third-round pick (No. 100) to Las Vegas for TE Darren Waller, per sources.

With the draft compensation involved, the #Giants essentially traded Kadarius Toney for Darren Waller -- and the numbers speak for themselves pic.twitter.com/ANY1eTrrgD

Rashaad Penny is going to lead the league in rushing if he stays healthy behind that Eagles OL.

Veteran free-agent QB Andy Dalton is expected to reach agreement on a two-year, $10 million deal that includes $8 million fully guaranteed with the Carolina Panthers, per source. Contract max value is $17 million. pic.twitter.com/GCBhqpQ0H8
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 14, 2023
As part of the #Colts trade to acquire QB Matt Ryan, his agent negotiated a new contract that included a $12M guarantee in 2023 that was not in his previous contract. Ryan remains entitled to the $12M regardless of what he decides to do this season. Amazing.

On the topic of Rodgers, I dont think Id really be worried until tomorrow night. They cant make a trade officially anyway until after 4PM and you dont want to announce it only have someone back out so I think both sides can wait. Dont think its impacting either teams plans
— Jason_OTC (@Jason_OTC) March 14, 2023
Aaron Rodgers has provided the NY Jets with a wish-list of free agents he would like them to target and acquire, per sources.
— Dianna Russini (@diannaESPN) March 14, 2023
It includes Randall Cobb, Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis and….Odell Beckham Jr.
Sam Darnold's one-year deal with the #49ers has a base value of $4.5 million, including $3.5M guaranteed.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) March 14, 2023
Of the deals we have data on the #Broncos are the biggest spender so far. $212.8M in total contract value, $127.5M in injury guarantees, $108.5M in full guarantees, and $62.76M in 1st year cash. Have 3 of the top 12 contracts signed this offseasonhttps://t.co/3aoHDXKJIg
