Could former Washington Commanders center Chase Roullier soon have a new home?
According to Matt Lombardo, Roullier visited the Arizona Cardinals Monday. The Commanders released Roullier in May after selecting former Arkansas center Ricky Stromberg in the third round of the 2023 NFL draft.
Per source, C Chase Roullier visited the #Cardinals today.
Roullier didn’t allow a sack in 150 snaps last season, before suffering a season-ending leg injury. He’s only allowed 1.0 sack since 2020. | @HeavyOnSports

Once Washington signed Nick Gates to open free agency in March, Roullier’s time with the Commanders was essentially over. Roullier wasn’t released due to his play but because of injuries. The 2017 sixth-round pick appeared in 69 games for Washington, making 63 starts.
After signing a four-year extension in Jan. 2021, Roullier missed 24 of a possible 34 games for the Commanders in 2022 and 2023. Roullier fractured his fibula in a Week 8 loss at Denver in 2022. He returned ahead of the 2023 season, but on the final offensive play of a Week 2 loss at Detroit, Roullier injured his knee and was lost for the season.
Roullier is still just 29 years old and could give the Cardinals some stability in the middle of their offensive line. Before his injury in 2021, Roullier had only missed five games in his first four seasons.
