Commanders Release Landon Collins, Matt Ioannidis
3 years agoThe Washington Commanders released defensive back Landon Collins and defensive lineman Matt Ioannidis on Wednesday. ESPN's Adam Schefter also reports that the team released offensive lineman Ereck Flowers. Collins and the Commanders were unable to agree on a restructured contract after he played out three years of a six-year, $84 million deal signed in 2019. His release will save the team $6.5 million with $9.6 million in dead money. Ioannidis was in the final year of a four-year contract, and his release will save Washington $6.88 million. He should be able to land another starting gig on the open market. The Commanders needed to free up more salary cap space after trading for quarterback Carson Wentz last week.
