2021 Report Card: Brett Howden
Photo by Maddie Meyer/Getty Images For the third year in a row, I’ve been given the task of grading Brett Howden’s play during a season. I highlighted the negatives of his rookie season, but also made note of some positive aspects for him to build on moving forward in order to become a more complete player. His sophomore year featured the same negatives without any of the positive notes, and I discussed that performance last year. Needing a strong performance in the final season of his entry level contract, Howden wasn’t quite able to do that.
