RICHMOND — The Washington Redskins’ cornerback group is one of the team’s greatest strengths after the addition of All-Pro cornerback Josh Norman. Bashaud Breeland emerged as the Redskins’ best corner last season before the arrival of Norman plus the Redskins added rookie Kendall Fuller, who was drafted in the third round and is expected to “be a major player on our defense for a while,” according to Jay Gruden.
The strong trio of corners boosts the secondary and the Redskins also like what they have in Quinton Dunbar, who switched from wide receiver last season, and Dashaun Phillips, who was primarily a special teams player last season.
