The Washington Commanders extended the contract of safety Jeremy Reaves, the team ​announced on Thursday ‌without disclosing terms of the deal.

For his career, Reaves, ​29, has 219 tackles, two ​interceptions, two sacks, one forced ‌fumble and 12 passes defensed in 81 regular-season games (19 starts) with Washington (2018-present).

He ⁠was selected a first-team All-Pro and the special teams starter on ⁠the ‌Pro Bowl team in ⁠2022.

The Philadelphia Eagles ​signed ‌the undrafted free agent ​out of ⁠South Alabama in May 2018 and released him that September, when he signed with Washington’s practice squad.
