George Fant‘s busy offseason in terms of workouts continues. The veteran offensive tackle recently met with the Commanders, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports. 
Schultz adds team and player will remain in contact over the near future. A deal could be in store soon as a result. Fant visited the Buccaneers last month, his first known workout of the summer. Previously, the 33-year-old expressed interest in joining the Titans or Ravens. With nothing happening on those fronts, Fant remains available shortly before the start of the regular season.
2024 saw Fant return to the Seahawks after beginning his career there. The former UDFA won the right tackle position but was limited to just two games due to injury. A veteran of 101 games and 75 starts, Fant could nevertheless offer plenty of experience at either tackle position as a first-team option or a high-floor backup.
The Commanders traded for Laremy Tunsil this offseason, and the five-time Pro Bowler will handle blindside duties as a result. On the right side of the line, incumbent Andrew Wylie and first-round rookie Josh Conerly Jr. are competing for the starting gig. Conerly saw time as a left tackle at Oregon, so he could assume the swing tackle role in the event Wylie were to win the ongoing competition. Fant could also represent a fill-in option at both tackle positions if he were to sign with Washington.
The Commanders currently have nearly $17MM in cap space, so a low-cost Fant signing would not be a challenge. It will be interesting to see if a deal is struck in the coming days or if his search for a 2025 gig will continue.
22 games started in three seasons. I’d hate to bet even my milk money on Fant at this point.
No team wants to keep Fant (three teams in three years) now.
