5 Redskins who can make life easier on Dwayne Haskins in 2020

The Redskins will likely only be as goods as Haskins allows them to be in 2020, so here are some players who can make the QB’s job easier.

It is unclear as to who will take over as the TE1 on the Washington roster in 2020, but whoever it ends up being needs to step up in a major way. In 2019, Haskins had to watch as both Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis were sidelined for the majority of the year, and he was forced to rely on Jeremy Sprinkle and Hale Hentges to bail him out of tough spots. Everyone knows that there’s arguably no position of greater value to a rookie quarterback than a big pass-catcher who can go up and get the ball over the middle, and Haskins didn’t have that in his first year.

While many thought that Washington would go out and grab one of the best TEs on the market in free agency, or at the very least draft one in April, they did neither. Instead, the Redskins signed both Thomas and Rodgers — two middling pass-catchers who haven’t proved much in their careers. That’s fine, we can work with it, but they have a lot of proving themselves to do be for we, or Dwayne, can trust them in tight spots.
