Redskins should kick the tires on recently released guard J.R. Sweezy

One of the only remaining weaknesses on the Redskins roster is the left guard position. Shawn Lauvao was the underwhelming starter for the team for the past four seasons. He has dealt with injuries and has been largely ineffective when asked to take the field. Still, the Redskins opted to bring him back for another season and didn’t add much competition for him.

As it stands, the Redskins have very few players to compete with Lauvao at the guard position. Some have argued that Ty Nsekhe could man the spot, but keeping him at tackle seems like the more likely option.
