Commanders Cut DB Tre Hawkins From IR With Settlement

Hawkins, 26, played collegiately at Trinity Valley Community College before transferring to Old Dominion University. He was a sixth-round pick by the Giants in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Hawkins signed a four-year, $3,989,520 contract with the Giants, including a $149,520 signing bonus, $149,520 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $997,380. He was entering the final year of that contract when he was let go coming out of the preseason. 

The Commanders signed him to a contract in November, but cut him loose earlier this week with an injury designation. 

In 2025, Hawkins appeared in one game for the Commanders.
