A source tells the Washington Post that E.J. Biggers, Richard Crawford and Chase Minnifield will compete for the starting left corner job.
Josh Wilson is locked in on the right side. We'd consider Biggers the heavy favorite to win this battle as Crawford is undersized and struggled as a rookie. Minnifield may never be able to get over his litany of knee woes. Regardless, Crawford is an excellent bet to stick on the roster thanks to his contributions in the return game. He averaged a whopping 19.5 yards on eight punt returns last year. Mar 27 - 9:40 AM

Date:

Redskins CB Richard Crawford is expected to get a shot at nickel duties in 2013.

Crawford, a 2012 seventh-round pick out of SMU, appeared in ten games as a rookie, making 18 tackles and picking off one pass. Washington gave him a shot early on in the year, but he then went on to play just five snaps from Week 6 to Week 15. With veteran Cedric Griffin set for free agency, Crawford is the next man up behind starters DeAngelo Hall and Josh Wilson.
