Washington Commanders veteran offensive lineman Andrew Wylie agreed to a $3.75 million pay cut last offseason in exchange for $3.5 million guaranteed and roster security. He lost the starting right tackle job to Josh Conerly Jr. during training camp, served as the swing guard, started the fewest games, and played the fewest snaps of his career. Wylie allowed nine pressures, five hurries, three quarterback hits, and one sack across 16 games, including five starts at right guard, accounting for 362 offensive snaps.

According to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team, the Commanders have signed Andrew Wylie to a multi-year contract extension. The deal is for two years and is worth $7.5 million, with a maximum value of $10.5 million, including $3 million in incentives. As a result, Wylie is expected to compete for the backup right tackle and swing guard role this offseason.
