The Washington Commanders have made significant additions to their roster, signing former Dallas Cowboys defensive end Dorance Armstrong to a three-year deal worth up to $45 million, center Tyler Biadasz, linebacker Frankie Luvu, running back Austin Ekeler, and kicker Brandon McManus.

New on @TheNFLWire: The @Commanders added two underrated stars to their defense in linebacker Frankie Luvu and edge-rusher Dorance Armstrong. Welcome to the Dan Quinn era! https://t.co/eA5sRXJNoW
Armstrong is one of the most underrated and efficient inside-out, versatile pass-rushers in the league whose skill-set was fully unlocked under Quinn in Dallas the last few years so this one makes a lot of sense. https://t.co/lI2X2CKbv5
