Texans Trade Pro Bowl Tackle Laremy Tunsil to Commanders in Roster Reshuffle

The Texans prioritize younger talent and financial flexibility, while Tunsil looks forward to protecting quarterback Jayden Daniels in Washington.

The Houston Texans traded Laremy Tunsil and a fourth-round pick to the Washington Commanders for four draft picks, including a 2026 second-round pick.
The Texans cited a focus on younger players and upcoming contract extensions, including Derek Stingley Jr.'s record-breaking three-year, $90 million deal.
Tunsil, a five-time Pro Bowler, expressed no hard feelings toward the Texans, understanding the trade as a business decision.
The Texans are overhauling their offensive line after allowing 54 sacks in 2024, releasing Shaq Mason and trading Kenyon Green to the Eagles.
Tunsil, excited about his new role, praised quarterback Jayden Daniels and expressed confidence in making an immediate impact with the Commanders.
