It’s time for Eagles CB Rasul Douglas to rise up and steal the show

A point of emphasis for improvement has been the cornerback position, dating back to the 2018 season when half of the defensive secondary was injured. One player remained a constant since his arrival into the NFL in 2017. That player is the former West Virginia Mountaineer himself, Rasul Douglas. Just about every season, I have watched Douglas improve exponentially, but he hasn’t been blessed with the starting cornerback position yet. In 2019, with the cornerback position again thin, that has to change.

2017
