Hours after Dyami Brown agreed to sign in Jacksonville, the Commanders lost a second free agent on the first day of the NFL’s ‘legal tampering’ period.
Per NFL Network’s Mike Garofalo, Jeremy Chinn has agreed to a two-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders for ‘over $16 million with over 75 percent of the deal fully guaranteed at signing.’
Chinn, 27, signed a one-year, $4.1 million deal with Commanders last offseason and started all 17 games, recording 117 combined tackles, two sacks, one interception, one forced fumble, and two fumble recoveries.
He also had 29 tackles and one interception in the Commanders’ run to the NFC Championship Game.
The 2020 second-round pick now joins Dan Quinn’s former boss, Pete Carroll, in Vegas, and leaves a hole opposite Quan Martin in the middle of the Commanders’ defensive backfield.
