One of the several free-agent defenders that the Washington Redskins added to their roster this offseason is free safety Sean Davis, who played for a few years with the Pittsburgh Steelers up until now.
So far in Washington, he’s started to spread the message of hard work and intensity, hoping to help instill a toughness in the team that starts on the practice field. With the Steelers, Davis may not have reached his ceiling on the field, but he experienced some of the best competition in practice, going up against All-Pro wide receiver Antonio Brown — one of the best players in the NFL when he’s actually on the field.
“It was awesome,” Davis said, via NBC Sports Washington. “It battle-hardened me and it made me ready.”
With that experience under his belt, Davis is now coming to Washington with a good feel of what the very best can do. Now he can match up with Terry McLaurin, and Steven Sims, knowing that he’s seen the best, so he can beat the best.
“He’s a workhorse,” the safety said, still talking about AB. “He’s going to talk crazy but he’s also going to outwork you, too, so I love everything about him. You had to be on your A-game because he was coming in prepared, he was coming in to put on a show every day at practice. It’s really a game every practice.”
