The Washington Commanders are revamping their offensive line, signing one veteran with two Super Bowl rings under his belt, and another with a fantastic comeback story after a gruesome injury that occurred while playing at FedEx Field. 

Former Kansas City Chiefs right tackle Andrew Wylie is reportedly joining his offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy in Washington on a three-year, $24 million deal, per NFL journalist Ari Meirov. 

Former New York Giants guard/center Nick Gates is also heading to the Commanders on a three-year deal as well with a maximum value of $18 million, per NFL Network. Gates has $8 million of that guaranteed as well.

The Eastern Michigan product went undrafted in 2018, but landed with the Chiefs and became an immediate presence on their line at right guard.
