Washington Commanders urged to acquire 3x Pro Bowl player

Washington Commanders urged to acquire 3x Pro Bowl player

Last year, the Washington Commanders came out of nowhere to nearly conquer the NFC and make an appearance in the Conference Championship. Of course, getting new leadership, such as head coach Dan Quinn and quarterback Jayden Daniels, surely helped.

But now the Commanders have the tough task of trying to do even better than last season, and they may need a bit more help to accomplish their goals.

Recently, Bleacher Report’s Matt Holder had a suggestion for the Commanders to upgrade their roster. Specifically, he wants to see Washington sign free agent pass-rusher Za’Darius Smith to a one-year contract.

For now, the Commanders are trusting that they have enough pass-rush juice already on hand. However, as we’ve seen before, the team could get to camp and realize they need a bit of a push. Other times, injuries throw a wrench into a team’s plans. Either way, signing the three-time Pro Bowl player could provide the exact type of boost the Commanders are looking for.

After recording nine sacks split between the Cleveland Browns and Detroit Lions, it appears the 32-year-old still has plenty of tread on his tires, and his next stop could very well be D.C.
