The Washington Commanders agreed to terms on a trade with the Indianapolis Colts for quarterback Carson Wentz Wednesday. Washington inherited Wentz’s contract, which will count $28 million against the salary cap in 2022.
After agreeing to a deal for Wentz, Washington was left with $5.9 million in cap room, per Over the Cap. Now, the team is working to create more space, and the No. 1 target is safety Landon Collins.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Commanders are expected to release Collins after the two sides could not agree on a restructured contract.
