Commanders Add Three Veteran Offensive Linemen to Active Roster

Coach Dan Quinn said the signings are meant to raise competition and add experienced, multi‑position depth while center Nick Allegretti recovers from a short calf strain.

Overview

  • The team announced on Saturday that Washington signed center Daniel Brunskill, tackle Nicholas Petit‑Frere and guard Max Scharping to the active roster.
  • The roster moves also included releasing wide receiver Chris Hilton Jr. and guard Timothy McKay and placing defensive tackle D.J. Davidson on the Reserve/Retired List.
  • Quinn said the additions were intended to boost competition in the offensive‑line room rather than serve as long‑term injury replacements.
  • The three veterans bring about 223 regular‑season games of NFL experience combined and include players who can snap or play multiple line spots.
  • The moves give the Commanders short‑term depth to protect quarterback Jayden Daniels and create more options for starting and backup rotations as camp continues.
