ASHBURN, Va., — The Washington Commanders filled a hole at guard, agreeing to terms with free agent Andrew Norwell, according to a source close to the situation. He’s expected at Washington’s facility later today. Terms were not yet disclosed
Washington lost both starting guards this week; it cut left guard Ereck Flowers on Wednesday and right guard Brandon Scherff signed a free agent deal with Jacksonville.
Norwell reunites with Washington coach Ron Rivera. Norwell played for Rivera from 2014-17 in Carolina before signing with Jacksonville.
Norwell was an undrafted free agent out of Ohio State and quickly earned a starting job with the Panthers.
He started nine games as a rookie and then became Carolina’s full-time starter at left guard for the next three years before signing with the Jaguars. He has started 111 games.
