Washington Football: 3 takeaways from win over Fresno State
3. Jake Browning is finally back
Browning underwent shoulder surgery from an injury he suffered against the Arizona State Sun Devils last November. He never really looked the same throughout the rest of the 2016 campaign or through the Rutgers matchup.
However, last week against the Montana Grizzlies finally looked like the Browning we all know and love and can put up huge numbers. The adjustment to life without John Ross could have impacted Browning through the season opener.
Browning only got to play through the first three quarters before K.J. Carta-Samuels took over. Before that, Browning threw for 255 yards and four touchdowns. More than anything, he did not make any big mistakes throughout the game.
Arizona State gets the pleasure of having to face Browning for the first time since he injured his shoulder against them. Expect him to have one of the biggest games of his career as he continues to rebuild his Heisman campaign.
