Nick Cross: Physicality or Bust? | Washington Commanders News
Description
The Washington Commanders made a bold move by signing safety Nick Cross, aiming to plug a glaring run-stopping hole in their defense. With a two-year, $13M deal, they’re betting on his physicality and instincts to be a game-changer—especially near the line of scrimmage. But not everyone’s convinced: analyst Moe Moton warns Cross might be a bust, arguing the team desperately needs a coverage safety to pair with Will Harris. While Cross lacks elite pass skills, the Commanders believe their improved front seven and other defenders can cover that gap. At just 24, Cross is seen as a developing asset—a calculated risk with high upside, if he can grow into the role.
