The Washington Redskins<\/a> have been one of the least successful NFL franchises in the past decade, with a combined record of 62-97-1. The team has managed only two winning seasons in that span, including two NFC East division titles, but zero playoff wins. The glory days with Joe Gibbs<\/a><\/strong> are a distant memory and the team is finally in a complete state of rebuilding, hoping to return to past prominence. However, the last decade has included some strong contributions, featuring players that have since departed or careers that were plagued with injuries. Let\u2019s take a look at the Washington Redskins 2010s All-Decade team, focusing on the offense.<\/span><\/p>\n

Check out the Redskins 2010s all-decade team on defense<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Washington Redskins 2010s All-Decade Team: Offense<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Quarterback: Kirk Cousins<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Kirk Cousins<\/a><\/strong> started for the Redskins from 2015-2018, leading the team to a 31-32-1 record with one NFC East division title. Despite the below-.500 record, this was the best stretch of the decade for the team. Cousins\u2019 best season was back in 2015, where he threw for 4,166 yards with 29 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. The Redskins won the NFC East that season before losing to Aaron Rodgers<\/a><\/strong> and the Green Bay Packers<\/a> in the NFC Wild Card game. Cousins finished his Redskins career as a starter with an impressive 81:36 touchdown to interception ratio.<\/span><\/p>\n

Running Back: Alfred Morris<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Alfred Morris<\/a><\/strong> was the bell cow for the Redskins from 2012-2015. He was a perfect fit for the zone-blocking scheme employed by the Shanahans during that span. Morris\u2019 best season came in his rookie year, where he ran for an impressive 1,613 yards and 13 touchdowns on 335 attempts. He was a key part of that Redskins team led by Robert Griffin<\/a><\/strong> III that won the NFC East back in 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wide Receiver: Pierre Garcon<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Pierre Garcon<\/strong> was one of the top options in the Redskins\u2019 passing game from 2012-2016. He was best known for his ability to gain yards after the catch. His best season came in 2013, where he put up 113 receptions for 1,346 yards and five touchdowns. Garcon was a key contributor in both divisional title seasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wide Receiver: DeSean Jackson<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

DeSean Jackson<\/strong> helped stretch the field and open up opportunities for his teammates during his Redskins tenure from 2014-2016. His best season was in 2014, where he put up 1,169 yards and six touchdowns on 56 receptions for an impressive 20.9 yards per reception. Jackson\u2019s exceptional downfield ability has been sorely missed since his departure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wide Receiver: Jamison Crowder<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Jamison Crowder<\/a><\/strong> was a sure-handed slot receiver in his time in D.C. from 2015-2018. His best season was in 2016, where he caught 67 balls for 847 yards and seven touchdowns. Crowder\u2019s departure left a significant hole in the slot – he would have made a great intermediate target for sophomore quarterback Dwayne Haskins<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tight End: Jordan Reed<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Jordan Reed<\/strong><\/a> dealt with a myriad of injuries during his Redskins career from 2013-2018, but he was a stud when healthy. Reed was one of the more athletic tight ends in the NFL, putting up 87 receptions for 952 yards and 11 touchdowns in his best season in D.C. It\u2019s a shame that injuries deprived the team of a potentially special player at the tight end position.<\/span><\/p>\n

Offensive Tackle: Trent Williams<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Trent Williams<\/a><\/strong> was widely considered to be one of the premier offensive tackles in the sport during his Redskins tenure from 2010-2018. Williams made the Pro Bowl for seven consecutive seasons from 2012-2018. He was the best player on a strong offensive line that helped create a dominant running game for the Redskins back in 2012. It\u2019s a shame that Williams had to leave on bad terms with the team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Offensive Tackle: Morgan Moses<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Morgan Moses<\/strong> has been a fixture on the Redskins offensive line since 2014. He\u2019s provided stability at right tackle and has become one of the better linemen on the team. Moses paired with Trent Williams to give the Redskins a strong pair of bookends for the past five seasons. The team will need him to step up once again in 2020 with the absence of Williams and an offensive line in transition.<\/span><\/p>\n

Offensive Guard: Brandon Scherff<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Brandon Scherff<\/a><\/strong> has been the second-best offensive lineman on the Redskins (behind Trent Williams) since he was drafted fifth overall by the team back in 2015. Scherff has made the Pro Bowl three times in his career. Like Morgan Moses, the team will be counting on him to step up in 2020 with the offensive line in a state of disarray.<\/span><\/p>\n

Offensive Guard: Kory Lichtensteiger<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Kory Lichtensteiger<\/strong> was a key contributor on a dominant Redskins\u2019 offensive line back in 2012, helping pave the way for Robert Griffin III<\/a><\/strong> and Alfred Morris to wreak havoc in the running game. Lichtensteiger stayed on the team from 2010-2016, shifting between center and guard. He was a perfect fit for the zone-blocking scheme employed by the Shanahans.<\/span><\/p>\n

Center: Will Montgomery<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Will Montgomery<\/strong> was another important piece on that 2012 offensive line that was widely considered to be one of the best in the NFL. Montgomery played for the Redskins from 2009-2013 and his impact in 2012 earned him a place on the All-Decade Team.<\/span><\/p>\n
