Top players returning to Washington in 2024

#1, Jalen McMillan, WR

Jalen McMillan was expected to have another brilliant season in 2023, leading him up to the NFL draft. However, injuries took much of the wide receiver’s season and he is now likely to return to college football for one more season for a better draft standing.

#2, Parker Brailsford, C

Parker Brailsford joined Washington in 2022 as a freshman but appeared in no game. However, he has started every game for the Huskies this season, becoming an important member of the team. His junior season at the program is expected to be more impactful.

Many anticipated a huge season for Washington in 2023. However, the running back suffered an injury in the fall camp and lost the entire season. Getting to the final stage of his rehabilitation, Davis will be ready to get back to action in 2024 in what will be his sixth season.
