The Facts: The Commanders and Slye have agreed to a new two-year deal, Ethan Cadeaux of NBC Sports Washington reports. Slye's contract is worth nearly $5 million with $2 million in guarantees, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Diehards Line:
The re-signing of Slye comes nearly one month after the Commanders issued a restricted free agent tender on Slye worth $2.4 million for 2022. Terms of the tender allow Slye to negotiate with other teams on a new deal, but Washington would have been allowed to match any potential contract. The tender no longer matters now, as Slye is locked in for the next two seasons under this new contract with Washington.
