"Nothing much has gone right for the Commanders this season. Their star-studded squad has been hit by significant injuries that show no signs of slowing down. It's not an excuse for their constant failure to meet expectations, but it's proven to Peters that depth must be strengthened to avoid similar complications next time. This all starts in the defensive trenches."
"Those on the interior aren't doing much better, and although everyone has flashed briefly, it's nowhere near consistent enough. Peters is planning for the future, and there is just no telling what he has in store. According to James Larsen from Pro Football Newsroom, the Commanders held a tryout with defensive tackle Kyon Barrs on Monday. He could be an option for the practice squad, or possibly to get a reserve/futures contract when the campaign concludes."
The Washington Commanders are preparing a major offseason roster overhaul after a disappointing season marked by injuries and inconsistent play. Injuries exposed thin depth across the roster and significant weakness along the defensive line, particularly at the edge and interior. General manager Adam Peters has conducted evaluations to identify depth options and improve consistency. The Commanders held a tryout with defensive tackle Kyon Barrs, who spent five college years at Arizona and USC, went undrafted in 2024, and had brief NFL stints plus time in the UFL. Barrs remains a candidate for the practice squad or a reserve/futures contract.
