Free agent cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon is visiting the Commanders on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports.<\/p>\n
The 49ers drafted Witherspoon in the third round in 2017 when current Commanders General Manager Adam Peters was a personnel executive with the team.<\/p>\n
Witherspoon, 31, spent four seasons with the 49ers, two with the Steelers and three with the Rams.<\/p>\n
In 2025, he started the first two games before injuring his shoulder in the Week 2 win over the Titans. Witherspoon returned in Week 13, was inactive in Weeks 15 and 16 and returned to the lineup for three games before re-injuring his shoulder. The second stint on injured reserve ended his season.<\/p>\n
He totaled eight tackles, one interception and two passes defensed in six regular-season games.<\/p>\n
In his career, Witherspoon has appeared in 96 games with 64 starts and has recorded 243 tackles, 13 interceptions, 60 passes defensed and one forced fumble.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Free agent cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon is visiting the Commanders on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports.
