PROTECTION HIT: Tunsil Injury Changes Commanders’ Jayden Daniels Plan

Washington Commanders left tackle Laremy Tunsil suffered a torn triceps that requires surgery, creating the first major protection pivot around Jayden Daniels. Tunsil allowed just two sacks on 753 snaps last season, so this is not a clean next-man-up situation. Brandon Coleman has the strongest immediate internal case, Josh Conerly Jr. has natural left tackle logic with pass-protection questions, and Taylor Decker gives Washington a veteran option worth exploring. David Blough can help through quick answers, chip help, delayed releases and tighter timing, but the recovery timeline determines whether Washington treats this as a temporary adjustment or a season-shaping problem.
