Washington LB Cole Holcomb an underrated asset in 2020

Posted Apr 15, 2020
Three 2019 NFL rookies played in all sixteen games last season, and the consistency of one player’s impact stood out above the rest: Fifth-round rookie linebacker Cole Holcomb. Holcomb started 15 of 16 games, amassing 105 tackles, one sack, one interception, and three forced fumbles. Yet he only played 63 percent of the team’s defensive snaps. (Riggo's Rag)
