The Redskins' final pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Joshua Holsey proved his abilities when healthy at Auburn. In 2017, he could very well 'be thrown into the mix,' as nickel cornerback.
The Washington Redskins took every possible avenue when it came to improving the secondary this offseason, signing D.J. Swearinger in free agency, moving Sua Cravens to safety full-time and drafting a pair defensive backs in the draft, one being cornerback Joshua Holsey.
Holsey adds a lot of potential to an already deep secondary but, unfortunately, he has been labeled as injury prone, having torn his ACL twice while in college.
