In the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, the Washington Redskins made an intriguing pick by selecting Khaleke Hudson. The versatile player saw action all over the field for the Michigan Wolverines playing in the Viper role on their defense.
At Michigan, the Viper position involves playing safety, linebacker, and on the edge in the team’s defense. Michigan’s opponents never knew where Hudson was going to line up, and that created confusion, mismatches, and ultimately opportunities for Hudson to make plays.
And make plays he did.
During his career at Michigan, Hudson was a primary starter for three years.
