"Commanders Secure Former Chargers Star Austin Ekeler in 2-Year Deal"

Austin Ekeler, former Chargers star, has signed a two-year contract with the Washington Commanders in the 2024 NFL free agency, reuniting with ex-Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn. The Commanders had a void at running back after Antonio Gibson's departure to the New England Patriots. Ekeler, known for his pass-catching abilities, is expected to share the backfield with Brian Robinson Jr. In addition to Ekeler, several other notable running backs, including Saquon Barkley and D'Andre Swift, also found new teams in the free agency frenzy.
