With Chase Young, Washington gained one of the best pass-rushing prospects in years. All he did at Ohio State in 2019 was finish No. 1 in the nation with 16.5 sacks, No. 2 with 21.5 tackles for losses, and No. 1 with seven forced fumbles.<\/p>\n
\n
With Young, veteran standout Ryan Kerrigan and 2019 first-round pick Montez Sweat, the Redskins could have one of the NFL\u2019s best pass rushes. Young is the favorite to win Defensive Rookie of the Year, checking in as low as +200 at DraftKings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
He\u2019s one of four potential new starters on defense, with linebacker Thomas Davis, cornerback Kendall Fuller, and safety Sean Davis added in free agency.<\/p>\n
With little expected of the Redskins, the odds are long on Rivera winning Coach of the Year. His odds range from +1,600 at Fan Duel to +2,800 at BetMGM.<\/strong><\/p>\nRunning back Antonio Gibson is an intriguing long shot to win Offensive Rookie of the Year. With the release of presumptive starter Derrius Guice, Gibson will enter the season as the No. 2 behind aging star Adrian Peterson, and could get a lot of work. Gibson is +5,000 at BetMGM.<\/p>\n
