  • DAVE BUTZ CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Excerpts from the Washington Redskins Press Guides
    DAVE BUTZ CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Excerpts From The Washington Redskins Press Guides 1982 Season On the defense that gave up the fewest points (128) in the NFL last season, Dave Butz anchored it. He was unanimous "Why didn't he get picked for the Pro Bowl?" selection, as Dave had his best season as a pro. He led the defensive line with 55 regular season tackles and 19 post-season stops. The veteran, who now has played in 109 of 112 games since coming to the Redskins, also recorded 4-1/2 regular season sacks, forced one fumble, and recovered one fumble. In the playoffs, Dave forced two fumbles, and, of course, recovered David Woodley's Super Bowl fumble after Dexter Manley knocked the ball loose. That particular play brought out the experience of Dave Butz. A younger player might have tried to scoop it up and run and lose the ball, but Dave just made sure he was in bounds and had the ball. A Moseley field goal shortly followed. Dave has now played in 55 straight contests and has led the Redskin defensive line in tackles the last three seasons. He also was given a Timmie Award by the Washington Touchdown Club, his second (he won one in 1979). Games Played: 9 Games Started: 9 1983 Season Some players have seasons to remember; others have specific games to remember. In 1983, Dave Butz had one of each. His season was, in a word, spectacular. In reaching the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career (an overdue honor), Dave made 69 tackles (2nd best among defensive linemen), piled up a team-leading 11-1/2 sacks, forced a team-best five fumbles, and even recovered one.

  • Three Redskins Named to 2018 Pro Bowl
    PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release December 19, 2017 THREE REDSKINS NAMED TO 2018 PRO BOWL LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. – The National Football League announced this evening that linebacker Ryan Kerrigan, guard Brandon Scherff and tackle Trent Williams have been selected to the 2018 Pro Bowl. The annual contest of the NFL's best will take place Sunday, Jan. 28, 2018, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla. In addition, linebacker Zach Brown and cornerback Josh Norman were selected as alternates. Including five selections last season, the Redskins have now produced at least three Pro Bowl players in back- to-back seasons for the first time since the 2012-13 campaigns. Along the offensive line, Scherff and Williams become the first Redskins offensive line duo collectively named to the Pro Bowl in consecutive seasons since the duo of Russ Grimm and Joe Jacoby earned selections four straight times following the 1983-86 seasons. Kerrigan’s selection is his second straight and the third of his career (2012, 2016-17). His selection marks the seventh time in the last nine years that a Redskins linebacker has earned Pro Bowl honors. He becomes the first Redskins linebacker to earn back-to-back Pro Bowl honors since London Fletcher earned four consecutive selections following the 2009-12 seasons. Kerrigan, 29, has started all 110 regular season games for Washington since being selected with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. His 110 consecutive starts are the longest active streak among NFL linebackers. For his career, he has recorded 67.5 sacks, third-most by a member of the Redskins since the NFL adopted sacks as an official statistic in 1982.
