Signed a contract with the Commanders in March of 2026.
Agrees to deal with Commanders
Witherspoon (shoulder) is signing with the Commanders, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Witherspoon will join the team after visiting Washington on Thursday. He evidently showed during the visit that the shoulder injury which landed Witherspoon on IR to finish his tenure with the Rams is no longer bothering the cornerback. Commanders GM Adam Peters was part of San Francisco's front office when the 49ers drafted Witherspoon in 2017.

The 30-year-old had ups and downs in his second season with the Rams, recording a career-high nine pass defenses and an interception to go with 31 tackles in 13 games. Opposing quarterbacks, however, boasted a 99.4 QB rating against the veteran, making it a feast or famine prospect when he was targeted. Witherspoon was brought back on another one-year deal for 2025, but a starting role isn't guaranteed with Darious Williams, Cobie Durant and Derion Kendrick all vying for roles.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be in line to start
Witherspoon is expected to start at cornerback for the Steelers opposite Cameron Sutton, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The former 49er signed with Seattle ahead of the 2021 season but never played a game for the Seahawks, instead getting traded to Pittsburgh after failing to win a starting job in training camp. Witherspoon took some time to adjust to his new surroundings but came on down the stretch last season, and he wound up leading the Steelers with nine passes defended and three interceptions. His main competition for a starting job appears to be former Bills cornerback Levi Wallace.
