The four-year extension was worth $74 million, with $45 million guaranteed.<\/p>\n<p>Cosmi started every game at right guard in his fourth NFL season. Unfortunately, Cosmi suffered a knee injury in Washington&#8217;s NFC Divisional Round playoff upset win over the <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/teams\/detroit-lions\/334\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Detroit Lions;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Detroit Lions<\/a> in January. Suffering an injury so late in the season meant Cosmi likely would miss at least some of the 2025 season.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, head coach Dan Quinn spoke to reporters after Washington&#8217;s OTA practice and offered an update on Cosmi.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sam is doing excellent,&#8221; Quinn said. &#8220;Like, he has really put the work in, he&#8217;s hitting all the markers that he&#8217;s supposed to. We&#8217;re not gonna miss one step along the process. But it starts with him, man, like just the, the everyday intensity that goes with it. There&#8217;s like a work mindset that comes outta that, and like, that&#8217;s important cause that&#8217;s who Sam is, and he&#8217;s off to a really strong start hitting all the markers he&#8217;s supposed to up to now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Quinn said a lot without really saying too much here. That&#8217;s typical coachspeak, but he didn&#8217;t say Cosmi suffered any setbacks or mention how long Cosmi would be out. It&#8217;s only been four months since Cosmi&#8217;s injury, so he&#8217;s nowhere near a full return. However, it sounds like he&#8217;s on the right path. When Quinn says Cosmi is &#8220;hitting all the markers,&#8221; that&#8217;s a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, the Commanders are prepared if Cosmi misses time. After trading for left tackle Laremy Tunsil, Washington used a first-round pick on offensive tackle Josh Conerly. That leaves last season&#8217;s starting tackles, Brandon Coleman and Andrew Wylie, as candidates to move inside and play guard.<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Commanders Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/commanderswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/commanders\/2025\/05\/28\/dan-quinn-injury-update-washington-commanders-sam-cosmi\/83910994007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Dan Quinn gives injury update on Commanders RG Sam Cosmi;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Dan Quinn gives injury update on Commanders RG Sam Cosmi<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Washington Commanders general manager Adam Peters didn&#8217;t need to see Sam Cosmi play in a game before signing&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":81637,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2069],"tags":[12025,7189,427,7291,113,7,3672,594,6,1083,855,111,2480],"class_list":{"0":"post-86886","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-washington-commanders","8":"tag-andrew-wylie","9":"tag-brandon-coleman","10":"tag-commanders","11":"tag-dan-quinn","12":"tag-detroit-lions","13":"tag-football","14":"tag-knee-injury","15":"tag-laremy-tunsil","16":"tag-nfl","17":"tag-sam-cosmi","18":"tag-washington","19":"tag-washington-commanders","20":"tag-washingtoncommanders"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114588821111722094","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86886","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=86886"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86886\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/81637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86886"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86886"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86886"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
