Report: Commanders LT Laremy Tunsil tears triceps

Washington Commanders star left tackle Laremy Tunsil suffered a torn triceps Saturday morning during practice in Ashburn, Va., and likely will need surgery and miss at least a significant portion of the regular season, NFL Network reported.

Multiple media outlets reported Tunsil appeared to be injured following a 1-on-1 rep with Commanders edge rusher Odafe Oweh. Tunsil, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, walked to the medical tent with trainers before ultimately heading to the team's training complex.

Regarded as one of the Commanders' most important players and considered one of the league's top tackles, Tunsil signed a two-year extension in March with $61.5 million in total guarantees. His contract average of $30 million per season is the first for an offensive lineman.

Acquired in a trade from the Houston Texans in March 2025, Tunsil started all 14 games in which he appeared last season with Washington and all 139 regular-season and seven playoff games in which he played in his career.

Tunsil, 32, was a first-round choice by the Miami Dolphins in 2016 but fully blossomed after being traded to the Texans ahead of the 2019 season. In six seasons with the Texans, the only year Tunsil wasn't named to the Pro Bowl was 2021, when thumb surgery cut his season short after five games.
