The Philadelphia Eagles have been quiet in free agency, but they signed their second cornerback today, former Commanders veteran Jonathan Jones. He only spent one season in Washington, suffering a hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve after the Packers game on Week 2. He didn\u2019t return to the girls until Week 7, and didnt start a game until Week 10.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jones joins an Eagles secondary that has Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean, and the newly signed Riq Woolen ahead of him on the depth chart. The Commanders made two signings in the secondary, adding former Detroit Lions CB <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hogshaven.com\/nfl-free-agency\/404795\/washington-commanders-free-agency-amik-robertson-signs-2-year-deal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Amik Robertson<\/a>, and former Colts S Nick Cross. Robertson joins Mike Sainristil and Trey Amos at corner, and he is expected to play a lot of slot in new defensive coordinator Daronte Jones\u2019 defense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Washington Commanders had over 30 pending free agents, and not many of them of them have been&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":809229,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2069],"tags":[107294,427,7,6,855,111,6220,2480],"class_list":{"0":"post-809228","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-washington-commanders","8":"tag-2026-washington-commanders-free-agency","9":"tag-commanders","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-nfl","12":"tag-washington","13":"tag-washington-commanders","14":"tag-washington-commanders-free-agency","15":"tag-washingtoncommanders"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116219424733992164","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/809228","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=809228"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/809228\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/809229"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=809228"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=809228"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=809228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
