An elite safety like Landon Collins would know a thing or two about standout offensive weapons.
Asked about such a topic Saturday, the Washington Redskins safety listed a predictable name alongside a surprise.
Per the Washington Post’s Kareem Copeland: “Landon Collins at the podium is asked which pass catchers have stood out: Jordan Reed and Terry McLaurin.”
Reed is the predictable name of the two and it is a good sign if he’s already being singled out by a defender like Collins. The Redskins need a big boost from him in 2019 after missing three games a year ago only scoring twice.
The surprising name is the rookie McLaurin. One might expect to hear about Paul Richardson or a player with more experience, yet it’s the Ohio State product Collins has talked about here.
Given the disappointments of Richardson and Josh Doctson over the past few years, it would be quite the bonus if a rookie wideout came in and had a big impact. Let Collins tell it, McLaurin might be well on his way.
