Mike Sainristil gamble now unavoidable as Commanders push chips to the table
"Sainristil's lack of size was punished by opposing passing attacks last season, conceding 68.5 percent of his targets and a 108.5 passer rating when targeted."
"Gaining four interceptions and 12 pass breakups was encouraging, but Sainristil is far from the finished product just yet."
"The Commanders haven't done much to offset the losses from their cornerback unit this offseason, underscoring the team's confidence in both Sainristil and Trey Amos."
"Washington's new defensive coordinator has a superb track record of maximizing the skills of his defensive backs, which could benefit Sainristil's development."
Mike Sainristil had a mixed season with the Washington Commanders, showing promise with four interceptions but also allowing significant big plays. He struggled with a high completion percentage against him and missed tackles. Despite these challenges, team insiders express confidence in his potential for improvement in the upcoming season. The Commanders have not significantly altered their cornerback roster, indicating trust in Sainristil and teammate Trey Amos. The new defensive coordinator is expected to enhance their development, aided by improvements in the front seven.
