The news this week about Washington has all been coaching related. The Husky players still will make the most impact despite the changes on staff. Washington lacks offensive playmakers, a reason why its only scored 22 points per game coming in, which ranks 10th in the Pac-12. However, the game-changers are on the defensive side of the football.
Cornerback Trent McDuffie
In recent years, Seattle has been a breeding ground for NFL defensive backs like Budda Baker, Byron Murphy, Kevin King, Elijah Molden and Taylor Rapp. The next one is Trent McDuffie. As poorly as the season has gone for Washington, its passing defense is still as good as ever and McDuffie is a big reason why.
