Laremy Tunsil moved in blockbuster trade by Houston Texans

Laremy Tunsil is on the move again. The former Ole Miss star has been traded by the Houston Texans ahead of the 2025 season.

Tunsil is now a member of the Washington Commanders. The Texans are receiving draft picks for the 2nd round (2026), 3rd round (2025) and 4th round (2026). The Commanders are also receiving a 4th-round pick in the deal, per NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport.

Tunsil played at Ole Miss from 2013-15. In the 2016 NFL Draft, he was selected No. 13 overall. The Commanders will be the 3rd team of his professional career.

Tunsil spent his first 3 seasons with the Dolphins. He made the PFWA’s All-Rookie Team for 2016.

After the 2018 season, the Dolphins picked up the 5th-year option on Tunsil’s rookie contract. Months later, however, he was traded to the Houston Texans along with Kenny Stills and a 4th-round pick, with the Dolphins receiving 2 1st-round picks, 1 2nd-round pick Johnson Bademosi, and Julien Davenport.

Tunsil has been with the Texans for the past 6 seasons. He has continued to make the NFL’s top 100 players list (No. 71 in 2024) and was selected to the Pro Bowl 5 times (2019, ’20, ’22-24).
