Redskins 2016 Better or Worse – Safety

In 2015, the Washington Redskins secondary struggled with injuries and inconsistency. Particularly at the safety position. The strong safety spot started the season being dealt a huge blow. Starter Duke Ihenacho was lost for the season in week one and a revolving door ensued after that.

Trenton Robinson took over and had a few nice moments but was up and down before he too was lost to injury. DeAngelo Hall took over and brought some stability to strong safety. Although Hall hadn’t played safety before he performed well against the run and brought leadership.

However, Hall was also coming off of injury before moving over from cornerback.
