Washington Commanders Free Agency: Chiefs Guard Nick Allegretti signs 3-year deal

The Washington Commanders continue to make deals, signing another offensive lineman before the first day of the NFL’s legal tampering period ended. Kansas City Chiefs G Nick Allegretti was a backup offensive lineman who stepped up when starter Joe Thuney went down with an injury. Allegretti helped protect Patrick Majomes as the Chiefs won their second consecutive Super Bowl in February.

The Washington Commanders are almost completely overhauling their offensive line this year, and Allegretti has the chance to win the starting job that he was looking for with a new team. He signed a 3-year, $16 million deal with $9.02 million guaranteed.

Washington started Saahsiq Charles and Chris Paul at left guard last season, but neither of them is a long-term solution unless the new coaching staff can fix their issues. Charles is also a pending free agent, and there haven’t been any reports of a return to Washington so far.

Washington Capitals re-sign Timothy Liljegren to a 2-year, $6.5 million contract

Washington Capitals re-sign Timothy Liljegren to a 2-year, .5 million contract

ARLINGTON, Va. — The Washington Capitals re-signed defenseman Timothy Liljegren to a two-year contract worth $6.5 million.

General manager Chris Patrick announced the deal Wednesday. Liljegren will count $3.25 million against the salary cap next season and in 2027-28.

The right-handed-shooting Swede played just four games for the Capitals after they acquired him from San Jose at the trade deadline in early March. He could have a bigger role next season as part of a blue line that is not expected to have John Carlson back after Washington sent the pending free agent to Anaheim on the eve of the deadline.

Now 27, Liljegren has 94 points in 324 regular season and playoff games in the NHL, with the vast majority of that time spent with Toronto.

The biggest question of the offseason for Patrick and the front office is the status of longtime captain, face of the franchise and career goal-scoring record holder Alex Ovechkin, who has not yet declared whether he’ll return for a 22nd season at age 41.
