Running against Washington’s defense won’t be as easy in 2025
The 2024 Washington Commanders were not good at stopping the run. First year defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. had his work cut out for him with a makeshift group of aging veterans and unproven young players.
The Results:
30th in rush yards allowed - 2,337
4.8 yards per carry allowed (third worst in NFL)
18 rushing touchdowns (tied for seventh worst in NFL)
To say things could not get much worse would be a fairly accurate statement.
Adam Peters set out to fix the run defense this offseason.
