Free agent cornerback Rasul Douglas plans to sign a one-year deal with the Washington Commanders worth up to $3.8 million, ESPN reported. Douglas, 30, joined the Miami Dolphins after the 2025 season's 53-man roster cuts and appeared in 15 games. He began the year behind Jack Jones and Storm Duck on the depth chart but entered the starting lineup after Duck suffered an injury in Week 1.
Douglas established himself as the Dolphins' top cornerback by the end of the season. He missed two games due to foot and ankle injuries but returned in Week 13 and recorded interceptions in the next two games. In 2025, Douglas was targeted 82 times, allowed 54 catches for 515 yards and three touchdowns, and defended 13 passes.
He earned AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors in Week 14 after defending five passes and intercepting a pass against the New York Jets. Over nine NFL seasons, Douglas has started 93 games for five teams, including the Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers and Buffalo Bills. He has recorded 21 career interceptions.
ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques contributed to the report.
