Description
In a hard-fought loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the Washington Commanders showcased promising performances from quarterback Josh Johnson, rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt, and wide receiver Deebo Samuel. Johnson, making his first start since 2021, completed 15 of 23 passes for 198 yards, while Croskey-Merritt rushed for 100 yards and two touchdowns in his first 100-yard game. Samuel, despite injuries, delivered a standout performance with 93 yards on four touches. The defense, led by rookie Johnny Newtons three sacks, also showed potential, but struggled on fourth downs, allowing Dallas to control the clock and limit Washingtons comeback chances.
