The Washington Commanders released veteran guard and former NFL All-Pro Andrew Norwell on Monday, which begs the question of whether the Indianapolis Colts should be potential suitors for the new free agent.
The 31 year old offensive guard has made 127 career starts—including 16 games for the Commanders this past season (although on the left side, which could be problematic in Indianapolis with NFL All-Pro Quenton Nelson anchoring that side). He missed last year’s season finale with an elbow injury and had been placed on PUP before his release.
An Ohio State standout (and prior collegiate teammate of former Colt Jack Mewhort), Norwell is most known for his playing career with the Carolina Panthers (2014-17), where he became a household name among league interior offensive linemen, but he has also spent time with the Jacksonville Jaguars (2018-21) and most recently, the Commanders (2022).
