Sacking QBs is something Washington already excels at by virtue of a budding pass-rushing duo. Entering 2021, Montez Sweat believes he and Chase Young can break the NFL sack record for a pass-rushing tandem, which is set at 39 sacks by Minnesota’s Chris Doleman and Keith Millard in 1989. “We talk all the time about breaking records and stuff like that,” Sweat told reporters Tuesday. “I personally want to go get the combined sack record that the guys got back before. We talk about it all the time.” The two combined for just 16.5 sacks in 2020, but with just three years of NFL experience between the two pass rushers, Sweat and Young are poised to grow those numbers with a great defense surrounding them. “Because we’re both dynamic players,” Sweat explained. “That’s all. We got two dynamic players on one line. You can make things happen.”
