Igbinoghene and the Commanders agreed to a one-year contract Thursday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Igbinoghene played in just 14 regular-season games between 2022 and 2023, but he appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Commanders in 2024 (including 10 starts) and finished with 55 tackles (33 solo) and seven pass defenses. Igbinoghene should play a prominent role in the Commanders' secondary in 2025 alongside Marshon Lattimore, Mike Sainristil and Jonathan Jones.

Igbinoghene racked up a career-high 55 tackles (33 solo) across 17 regular-season appearances with the Commanders in 2024. He also had seven passes defensed and compiled 25 yards on kick returns.
EDGE Analysis
Igbinoghene recorded the best season of his career with Washington in 2024, starting 10 of his 17 appearances. During the Commanders' three postseason games, Igbinoghene made 10 tackles (seven solo). After playing out the 2024 campaign on a one-year, $1.29 million contract, Igbinoghene will now become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Igbinoghene (thumb) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Igbinoghene practiced in full Friday after beginning the Commanders' week of practice with back-to-back limited sessions, suggesting that he's moved past his thumb injury in time for Sunday's divisional matchup. Now that the 2020 first-round pick has returned to full health, he's expected to serve as one of Washington's top rotational cornerbacks in Week 12.

Igbinoghene (thumb) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
The Auburn product played 56 defensive snaps and recorded six total tackles in the Commanders' Week 11 loss to the Eagles. However, it now appears he picked up a thumb injury in the process. Igbinoghene's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely offer the best indication of whether he can play through the issue in the Week 12 divisional matchup against the Cowboys.

Igbinoghene signed a contract with the Commanders on Sunday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Iginoghene had an underwhelming first four years of his career. After tallying 29 tackles and five passes defended over 32 regular-season games with Miami, the 2020 first-round pick was traded to Dallas ahead of the 2023 regular season. He never managed to carve out a significant role with the Cowboys, primarily playing on special teams across five appearances with the team. Igbinogene will now follow former Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn to Washington.

Miami traded Igbinoghene to Dallas in exchange for Kelvin Joseph on Tuesday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
A 2020 first-round pick, Igbinoghene struggled during his first three seasons in the NFL and had his fifth-year option declined by Miami this offseason. Dallas' secondary is talented and deep, but Igbinoghene has a unique skill set that could flourish under defensive coordinator Dan Quinn.

The Dolphins declined Igbinoghene's fifth-year option Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Igbinoghene has struggled throughout his first three years, as he's logged only 29 tackles (25 solo) and a single interception in just five starts. The 2020 first-round pick has found himself buried on the depth chart and played only 56 defensive snaps over the team's final nine games last season. With the Dolphins adding three new cornerbacks during the offseason in Jalen Ramsey, Cam Smith and Keion Crossen, Igbinoghene might have an even harder time finding the field during the 2023 campaign.

Igbinoghene had four tackles (three solo), one pass breakup and one interception during Sunday night's 16-10 win over the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
Igbinoghene's toe-tapping interception came on the Steelers' last play of the game, when he picked off Kenny Pickett in the end zone to seal a win for Miami. The 2020 first-round pick was able to provide a much-needed spark for Miami's depleted secondary, which also saw safety Brandon Jones (knee) depart the Week 7 win early. With Byron Jones (ankle) still on the PUP list, Igbinoghene could be in line for another increased defensive role Week 7 versus the Lions.

Igbinoghene (undisclosed) was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis

Igbinoghene was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Igbinoghene had been active for each of the Dolphins' last four games. Miami will do without some of its special teams depth as a result.
