Today, the Washington Redskins released their first unofficial depth chart ahead of the 2019 season. Anticipation was high amongst Redskins fans to find out how the quarterback group would be ordered. Washington notably spent the fifteenth overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft on Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins, making him the second quarterback selected after Arizona’s selection of Kyler Murray first overall.

Though Haskins is a top pick with room to grow, the Redskins’ first depth chart has the Texas Longhorn legend Colt McCoy listed as the starter. McCoy was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the third round of the 2010 NFL draft and is now going into his fifth year with the Redskins. He has made 27 starts and posted passing totals of 5958 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 26 interceptions in his career thus far.

In college, McCoy had an illustrious career. As a four-year starter, he passed for a total of 13,253 yards and 112 touchdowns and added 1,571 yards and 20 touchdowns on the ground. In his epic 2-year run from 2008-09, McCoy finished second and third in Heisman voting, won the Walter Camp Player of the Year Award twice, was consensus All-American twice, and won one each of the Davey O’Brien Award, Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, Manning Award, Maxwell Award, and the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year Award.

McCoy still has to win out the job over Case Keenum and Dwayne Haskins, and that is going to happen only if he has improved since his previous starts in the NFL. Regardless, Colt McCoy is a Longhorn legend so we will hopefully see a blast from the past when the season kicks off.
