Skins Beat: WR Josh Doctson looks to step up this year

As much as anyone, the Redskins need 2016 first-round pick Josh Doctson to take a significant step forward. The 6-foot-2, 206-pound receiver played just two games as a rookie due to recurring Achilles’ tendon injuries that began during that offseason. A pulled hamstring last August further slowed his development and he finished the 2017 season with 35 catches for 502 yards and six touchdowns. This is his first fully healthy offseason as a professional.

Fantasy Impact: 

Doctson said he “absolutely” feels in a better place this year, is able to run full sprints and everything else and wants to be more efficient, according to the story.
