Last year, Washington’s defense was as bad as it was in large part because of repeated injuries at the cornerback position combined with a lack of depth. That resulted, for instance, in true freshman Jaivion Green playing the majority of the snaps in the biggest game of the season when the Dawgs traveled to Oregon.
We aren’t quite to the “oh no” part of the season when it comes to injuries but things are beginning to add up even if UW has only given up 29 points through 2 games. So far thouh the injuries have at least been spread out across the defense.
