Commanders have Signed Panthers Free Agent to Replace Kamren Curl
Washington Commanders can replace free agent Kamren Curl with a versatile starter from the Carolina Panthers.
The Washington Commanders need to keep all of the good players they can to help a rebuild, but if they have to lose safety Kamren Curl in NFL free agency, they should replace him with Jeremy Chinn of the Carolina Panthers.
That’s the verdict of Bleacher Report’s Matt Holder. He describes Curl as “a ‘do-it-all’ safety this year, lining up in the box, deep and over the slot.”
A defensive back so versatile will be tough to replace, but Holder also noted how “Chinn has a similar skill set and plays in a similar role on Carolina’s defense. He’s also still pretty young as he’ll be 26 years old in February, so the Commanders could get a suitable replacement for one of their best defensive players without having to sacrifice too much youth at the position.”
If they can’t keep Curl, the Commanders would be wise to look at Chinn, who excels in a role crucial to modern defense.
Jeremy Chinn is an Ideal Kamren Curl Replacement
There won’t be a more natural fit to replace Curl on the veteran market than Chinn. The latter is equally adept at safety or linebacker, has played nickel or dime back.
Lines between those positions have become blurred in recent years. Defensive coordinators want coverage-ready players in the box who can still hit in run support and create pressure on the blitz.
