Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera told everyone how important third-year safety Kamren Curl was to the team’s defense. So when Curl missed the first two games of the season after undergoing thumb surgery, the Commanders missed him.
It’s no coincidence Washington’s defense has improved since Curl returned in Week 3. Sure, the Commanders have allowed multiple big plays, but don’t blame Curl. As a whole, the defense has gotten better despite uneven performances from starting cornerbacks Kendall Fuller and William Jackson III.
