Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner is expected to sign with the Washington Commanders, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.
Wagner will sign a 1-year deal worth a maximum $8.5 million and includes $6 million in guarantees.
Seattle, we’ve done this before. You know what it is. It’s always love. Until we meet again. I’m around 🤞🏾

Just last year, the 33-year-old said he intended to play next season, his 13th in the NFL.
“There’s no might. I never thought anything else outside of that,” Wagner said.
Wagner spent his first 11 seasons with the Seahawks before being released in a salary cap move.
He signed with the Los Angeles Rams in 2022, but only spent one season there before returning to the Hawks last year.
“He’s had a fantastic season coming back to us,” former Seattle coach Pete Carroll said last year. “His leadership. The example that he sets for other guys; he doesn’t have to say much. He just does everything well and right.”
