Texans trade Laremy Tunsil to Commanders for draft picks

The Washington Commanders made significant moves in NFL free agency by trading for offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil from the Houston Texans and signing defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw. The trade involves the Commanders sending multiple draft picks, including a 2025 third-round pick and a 2026 second-round pick, to Houston in exchange for Tunsil and a fourth-round pick. Tunsil, a five-time Pro Bowler, will bolster the Commanders' offensive line, protecting quarterback Jayden Daniels. Meanwhile, the Texans are left with questions about their offensive line, having traded away their top lineman after a season where quarterback C.J. Stroud was heavily pressured. The decision has drawn criticism, with analysts questioning the Texans' strategy as they attempt to improve their offensive line. The Texans now face the challenge of replacing Tunsil and enhancing their overall protection scheme moving forward.
