Commanders sign OL Sam Cosmi to extension reportedly worth $74 million over four years

Washington Commanders offensive lineman Sam Cosmi has signed an extension less than a week before the team’s regular-season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the team announced Wednesday. The veteran is getting a four-year extension worth $74 million, which includes $45 million guaranteed, according to ESPN. 

A 2021 third-round pick, Cosmi has helped restore Washington’s proud tradition of top-tier offensive linemen, a tradition that harkens back to the early ’80s when the unit was nicknamed “The Hogs.” During his first three seasons, Cosmi made 32 starts that included a career-high 17 in 2023. 

“This is a great day for the Washington Commanders. We’re excited to have reached an agreement on a contract extension with Sam Cosmi,” Commanders general manager Adam Peters said. “Sam has bought into the vision that DQ and I have had for this team since day one. He is a pillar of our offensive line and we believe that Sam’s best playing days are ahead. 

“Sam is a great leader and teammate and we’re excited that he will be a member of our team for years to come.”
