Despite a standout performance from Jahmyr Gibbs, who rushed for 105 yards and two touchdowns, and Jared Goff's 313 passing yards, the Lions were unable to hold off a relentless Washington offense. Washington's Jayden Daniels threw for 299 yards and two touchdowns, while Brian Robinson Jr. added two rushing touchdowns to fuel the Commanders' victory.
