In addition to Wentz coming to Washington for multiple third round picks, the two teams have reportedly agreed to swap second round picks in 2022.

Wentz, 29, leaves Indianapolis after only one 9-8 season. He was the second overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

Danny Jolles is sitting in front of a camera in Los Angeles wearing a black Jayden Daniels Commanders jersey and a burgundy hat with the team's throwback rallying cry, "hail." He's touched every corner of the DMV and bleeds Burgundy and Gold, so putting him in the same vein as fellow actor and Commanders fan Matthew McConaughey is a problem. "He's not a D.C. sports fan," Jolles said. "And it kind of annoys me...he just kind of picked our team randomly. And I don't like it."
