No. 2 – QB Josh Johnson

The Washington Redskins fourth-string quarterback graces the ‘Players to Watch’ list for a second straight week, and for good reason.

In Week 16 of the regular season, Josh Johnson is one of the most important players on Washington’s roster. In Week 15, against the Jaguars, Johnson was the offense’s only true life until Adrian Peterson iced the game in the fourth quarter, and in Week 16, against a strong Titans’ run defense, the same will be true.

Johnson got the first win as a starter in his NFL career last week, and if the Redskins are to have a shot at making the 2018 playoffs, Johnson needs to get his second this coming Saturday.
