Andrew Norwell is headed to Washington.

The former Ohio State offensive lineman signed with the Washington Commanders after agreeing to a deal with the team on Thursday.

Terms of the contract have not yet been reported.

Norwell joins the Commanders after four seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He previously spent four seasons with the Carolina Panthers and was a first-team All-Pro in 2017, his final season with the Panthers, where he played for current Washington coach Ron Rivera.

Entering his ninth season in the NFL, Norwell becomes the fourth former Ohio State player on the Commanders’ current roster, joining Terry McLaurin, Chase Young and Curtis Samuel.

Norwell is the second former Ohio State offensive lineman to sign with a new team this week, along with Jamarco Jones, who signed with the Tennessee Titans. Former Buckeyes who re-signed new deals before hitting free agency this week included Dallas Cowboys safety Malik Hooker and long snapper Jake McQuaide and Indianapolis Colts defensive end Tyquan Lewis. Other former Ohio State players that hit free agency this week who have not yet signed deals include Eli Apple, Johnathan Hankins, Jalyn Holmes, Billy Price and Nate Ebner.
