Trey Quinn

Experience: 3rd season

Draft Status: 2018 seventh-round pick, 256th overall

2019 Stats: 12 games (six starts), 26 catches, 198 yards, one touchdown

2020 Outlook: During the 2018 and 2019 offseasons, there was excitement surrounding Trey Quinn’s ability to lock down a role as a slot receiver for Washington. But after mediocre performances in those two seasons while struggling to stay healthy, Quinn’s star has lost its luster a bit.

Still, Quinn does provide value. He plays special teams and when he has been on the field, he has been decent in the slot. He’s not great by any means, but perhaps if he can stay healthy for a full season he could provide the team with more.

Expectations for Quinn are at an all-time low in 2020. So, maybe he’ll be able to use that to his advantage and find a way to produce more than many anticipate in 2020.

Expected Role: Quinn seems like the favorite to be the slot backup at the moment. He showed some promise there as a rookie and had decent showings early in 2019 before struggling down the stretch. Ron Rivera and Co. didn’t invest a pick in Quinn, but perhaps they’ll like him enough to keep him around, especially since he is, somehow, the longest-tenured Washington receiver.

Status: Quinn is firmly on the roster bubble. If final cuts were today, he would probably make the team. But his grip on a spot is tenuous at best and other more dynamic players like Kidsy, Wright, and Johnson could eke him out for the backup slot job. Quinn’s performance will surely be something to watch as the 2020 NFL season draws nearer.
