This is the key. Play him closer to the LOS and you’ll unlock the very real skillset while minimizing the harm he can do in coverage. 

He struggled as a traditional safety with the Redskins, but he was legitimately very good for the Football Team in this role — though for whatever reason the Commanders chose not to bring him back.

Statistically his best year with Washington was when they were the Redskins though, right?

Redskins year was solid, but I thought the second half of WFTII was his best performance. He lit up the stat sheet once they moved him to the “you’re not a LB, we swear, you’re still a S, you just have exclusively LB duties now” position. 

He got in about 7.5 games there, and piled up 49 tackles, 3 sacks, 6 TFLs, 2 INTs, 1 FF, and 2 FRs. If he’d kept that pace for a full season, that’s a monster year — comparable to any LB in the league, really, aside from not quite matching the big tackle numbers of a few guys.
