The Washington Commanders are planning to sign cornerback Rasul Douglas to a one-year deal, ESPN reported Monday.

The deal is reportedly worth up to $3.8 million.

Douglas played last season, his ninth in the NFL, with the Miami Dolphins. He recorded 62 tackles, two interceptions and 13 pass breakups in 15 games (13 starts), earning an AFC Defensive Player of the Week honor in Week 14.

The 30-year old third-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft has 503 tackles, 92 pass deflections and 21 interceptions over 135 games (93 starts) with the Philadelphia Eagles (2017-19), Carolina Panthers (2020), Green Bay Packers (2021-23), Buffalo Bills (2023-24) and Dolphins.

With his signing, Washington would seek to bolster a passing defense which ranked 28th in the NFL last season, allowing 242.5 passing yards per game.
