The Washington Commanders reportedly embarked on an "exhaustive" quarterback search before settling on Wednesday's trade for the Indianapolis Colts' Carson Wentz.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported Thursday the Commanders also explored deals for the Green Bay Packers' Aaron Rodgers, Houston Texans' Deshaun Watson, San Francisco 49ers' Jimmy Garoppolo and Seattle Seahawks' Russell Wilson, who's since been traded to the Denver Broncos.
Washington also considered a potential free-agent run at former Chicago Bears starter Mitchell Trubisky, who spent the 2021 season as the Buffalo Bills' backup, per Fowler.
