WATCH: 3 reasons why the Washington Commanders should pull off a Kareem Hunt trade
Apr. 26, 2024 – 11:09 – The Washington Commanders’ preseason opener this past weekend was defined by continued fumble issues from star young running back Antonio Gibson.
It’s gotten so bad that head coach Ron Rivera and Co. had Gibson playing with deep reserves against the Carolina Panthers despite the fact that he put up north of 1,300 total yards a season ago.
Washington finds itself between a rock and a hard place heading into the 2022 season. The team fancies itself as a legitimate playoff contender and one of the top threats to unseat the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East. But with questions marks in the backfield and at quarterback, that seems to be more of a pipe dream than anything else.
