Overview
- Free-agent cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon is visiting Washington, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo as relayed by Yahoo Sports.
- No deal has been reported as the team gauges his fit and medicals following a broken clavicle and a re-injury that sidelined him late last year.
- The 6-foot-2 defender is entering his 10th NFL season and was a 2017 third-round pick by San Francisco when current Washington GM Adam Peters worked in that front office.
- Witherspoon spent the past three seasons with the Rams after earlier stops with the 49ers and Steelers, and he logged six games in 2025 with one interception and two passes defensed.
- Yahoo Sports describes the Commanders' interest as the first reported for him this offseason, pointing to a veteran depth check at cornerback.
