Cornerback was always going to be a need for the Washington Redskins in the 2020 offseason; the slot cornerback spot was unfilled heading into the offseason, and former third-round pick Fabian Moreau hasn’t developed as one would have hoped, up to this point.
The lone point of solace, amidst all this uncertainty, came from Quinton Dunbar, a former undrafted free agent who morphed into one of the better coverage cornerbacks in the league in 2019, amassing four interceptions and eight pass deflections in 11 games.
Dunbar graded out as one of the most productive cornerbacks in the NFL in 2019, and heading into 2020, he was viewed as a key piece of a growing defense.
