Predicting Every NFL Team's 2020 Breakout Player

The NFL is a league of constant change, and there are many under-the-radar players who could break onto the national stage in 2020.

Some will have much larger roles on their teams next season after players departed—or at least have a chance to be more comfortable in their systems.

Every team has a player like that. Veterans regress and fade away, while younger players develop and become contributors.

Some teams may have more than one breakout candidate, but let's take a look at one from each squad who could have a much bigger impact in the upcoming campaign.
