Washington Commanders sign former Wisconsin offensive lineman

Former Wisconsin Badgers offensive lineman Michael Deiter and the Washington Commanders agreed on a contract Monday.

Deiter spent the 2023 NFL campaign with the Houston Texans, but he now joins his third NFL team. He will reunite with former Badgers teammate center Tyler Biadasz, who signed with the Commanders this offseason as well.

While in Madison, Deiter played all three offensive line positions (center, guard and tackle) between 2014-2018, starting alongside Biadasz. Deiter went on to be selected in the third round (78th overall) of the 2019 NFL draft by the Miami Dolphins. He’ll look to carve out a consistent role on Dan Quinn’s offensive line with the Commanders.
