Commanders host Navy All-American for local workout

The Washington Commanders have done their due diligence on a number of positions leading up to next week's 2026 NFL Draft. Washington has specifically focused on edge rushers, defensive backs and wide receivers. One position we haven't often heard connected to the Commanders is defensive tackle.
