Washington Commanders safety Kamren Curl missed Week 1 with a thumb injury. In his absence, second-year safety Darrick Forrest made his first NFL start and ended up as the league’s highest-ranking safety, per Pro Football Focus.
If you aren’t impressed with PFF, just go back and watch Washington in Week 1 vs. Jacksonville. The most impressive player on the Commanders’ defense was Forrest. He broke up a touchdown pass, a two-point conversion, delivered multiple big hits and ended the game with an interception.
