Overview
- Tunsil left a Washington training-camp practice while being helped by athletic trainers after being dinged in a 1-on-1 drill versus an edge rusher.
- NFL reporter Mike Garafolo posted that the play 'looked like a stinger,' and Tunsil was taken to the on-field tent and then inside the team complex for further evaluation.
- If the injury is a true stinger, it is usually a short-term nerve bruise that often clears in days, but teams are cautious during camp and Washington has not given an official medical update.
- Backup tackle Andrew Wylie reportedly took over at left tackle after Tunsil left, which could affect practice reps and the Commanders’ preparation until Tunsil is cleared.
- Tunsil is a five-time Pro Bowl starting left tackle who was acquired last offseason and missed three games in 2025, so his health is closely watched because it matters for the offense’s protection and continuity.
