2023 Fantasy Outlook
Forest barely played in 2021 as a rookie fifth-round pick, but he became a crucial part of Washington's defense last year after moving into the starting free safety spot midseason, ultimately recording 88 tackles and a team-high four interceptions across 17 games (11 starts). His per-snap tackle rate wasn't far behind strong safety Kamren Curl's, and while Curl is the favorite to make more tackles this season, Forrest is back as a starter and also could have IDP value.

Continues to make progress
Forrest (shoulder) is expected to be ready for offseason workouts, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Forrest suffered a fractured shoulder in October, which brought an end to his 2023 campaign early. The Cincinnati product spent about eight weeks with his arm in a sling before beginning rehab at the Commanders' facility and never underwent surgery to repair the injury.
