The Washington Football Team has made it’s first long-term contract extension of the season, inking center Chase Roullier to a four-year contract extension that will keep him in Washington for the foreseeable future.

Roullier has been one of the staples of Washington’s offensive line since being drafted in the 6th round in 2017. Washington has found some real success on their offensive line this season, and Roullier’s ability and availability has been a big part of that.

There was some question as to where he stood with the team earlier this year after the draft selection of C Keith Ismael in the 2020 NFL Draft. Many thought that Ismael would compete for the starting C position and push Roullier out in a contract year, but Roullier has played very well and earned his place on Washington’s offensive line.
