David Bruton to get first crack at Washington strong safety gig
Washington safety David Bruton is getting the "first crack" at the strong safety job, CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.
Analyst Rich Tandler said Duke Ihenacho would have to be "clearly superior" in training camp to unseat Bruton, who started just eight games in his seven years with the Denver Broncos. He does have a fourth-round pedigree, however, and showed well as a short stint as a starter before breaking his leg last season. DeAngelo Hall is locked in at free safety.
Washington ranked 17th in Adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points (NEP) per play in 2015.
