Earlier this week, before the final injury status was known for the Commanders, we asked in our Reacts survey which player potentially returning from long-term injury would make the biggest positive impact if available.
The results were strong, and two players, one on offense and one on defense, were neck and neck as top vote-getters. Linebacker Cole Holcomb, who is also the defensive signal caller, narrowly edged out rookie wide receiver Johan Dotson in this poll.

It probably speaks to the youth of Washington’s core roster that all four players listed in the survey are on their rookie contracts, and two of them are actually drafted rookies.
