Just so I can understand, here it is one more time:
• Washington, a team very recently in first place in the NFC East, lost its starting quarterback on Nov. 18 and worked out a platoon of backups including a 32-year-old Josh Johnson (last NFL pass on Dec. 11, 2011), 35-year-old Kellen Clemens (last NFL pass on Dec, 31, 2017) and Mark Travis John Sanchez (last NFL pass on Jan. 1, 2017 plus a four-game suspension for violating the league’s policy on performance enhancing substances). At the time this was less notable because Washington had a tenured backup in Colt McCoy, who can function at a replacement level.
