Washington has secured a commitment from Old Dominion offensive tackle Chris Adams, who played every game last season and has two years of eligibility left. Adams led his team in offensive snaps and can play both left and right tackle. This marks the fifth transfer portal player Washington has acquired, with a focus on bolstering the offensive and defensive lines. The addition of Adams brings Washington closer to the goal of having 15-16 scholarship O-linemen for the 2024 season.
