Washington Redskins rookie linebacker Preston Smith ended his first season on quite the high note, as the 2015 second-round pick collected five sacks in his final three games.
Smith's eight total sacks on the season are the second most by a rookie in Redskins history.
On Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys in the regular season finale, Smith recorded a sack after getting around three-time Pro Bowler and 2014 first-team All-Pro Tyron Smith.
