Washington Commanders star tackle Laremy Tunsil will miss "at least a significant portion of the regular season" with a torn triceps suffered in Saturday's practice, per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo and Steve Wyche.

Tunsil injured his triceps during a one-on-one pass-rush drill, per Garafolo and Wyche. The duo confirmed that he will likely need surgery, which would necessitate him sitting for most of the regular season.

This is a huge blow to the Commanders, who must now replace one of the best left tackles in the NFL for the long haul to keep quarterback Jayden Daniels upright during a hoped-for rebound season in D.C.

Could Tunsil miss the rest of the season?​


It's unfortunately possible depending on how his recovery goes.

Who would take over for Tunsil at left tackle?​


The team could move Josh Conerly Jr. over to the left side and put in Andrew Wylie in at right tackle, play Wylie at left tackle or look for a new tackle via free agency or a trade.
