Breaking down what the Commanders are getting in new free agent S Jeremy Chinn
Chinn was once runner up to former Commanders defensive end Chase Young in defensive rookie of the year voting back in 2020, but much like Young he’s been hit by injuries and seen his career stall as a result of those injuries and due to some misuse of his skillset.
Chinn is an incredible athlete. He’s listed at 6-foot-3, 220 pounds, which is big for a modern safety. In the current NFL, when you see a safety that size, they’re almost instantly considered a hybrid linebacker option.
