Steven Sims Jr. is only player in NFL to accomplish this feat in 2019

The future is starting to look pretty bright in Washington, isn’t it?

Not only has the team rid of team president Bruce Allen, but they have also hired the highly-respected Ron Rivera, and are looking to bring in Jack Del Rio as the defensive coordinator on top of that.

Now, with a revamped front office, a coaching staff who is ready to hit the ground running, and the No. 2 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, fans might start to get excited for next season to roll around. If you’re looking to increase that excitement, look no further than the talented young players on offense that emerged this year, the most surprising of which was undrafted rookie wide receiver Steven Sims Jr.

Sims was one of the final players to make the 53-man roster in the preseason, and he made the most of his opportunity with the Redskins, becoming the only player in the NFL this season to run, catch, and return a touchdown this season.

Alongside players like Terry McLaurin, Kevlin Harmon, Derrius Guice, and Dwayne Haskins, there’s a group of potentially explosive playmakers on the Redskins offense.
