Defensive captains:

OLB Danielle Hunter
ILB Jordan Hicks

Special teams captains:

One thing worth noting is each group got a captain. On offense, the quarterback, skill positions and offensive line. On defense, the defensive line, linebackers and defensive backs all got one as well.

Kirk Cousins was named a unanimous captain with the only blank ballot was his own. Jefferson and Hicks were named captains for the first time in the 2023 season.
