The Commanders got down 10-0, but have scored 13 straight points and have a 13-10 lead at halftime.
However, there could be an injury concern with Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels.
Daniels took a hard hit from Nolan Smith late in the first half on an incomplete pass and took a bit to get up. Though Marcus Mariota spoke with Daniels on the sideline, the young quarterback stayed in before throwing an incomplete pass on third-and-1 to bring up Drew Stevens’ 39-yard field goal with 19 seconds left on the clock.
The NBC broadcast showed Daniels wincing on the sideline as he went to sit down following the incomplete pass. Washington’s medical staff surrounded Daniels, but then the broadcast showed Daniels sitting by himself, ostensibly OK.
Daniels had a middling first half, completing 11-of-221 passes for 96 yards with a touchdown — an 8-yard pass to Stefon Diggs midway through the second quarter.
On the other side, Tanner McKee is 8-of-14 for 81 yards. Saquon Barkley had a 3-yard touchdown midway through the first quarter to make the score 10-0. He is having a tough night, though, gaining just 15 yards on eight carries. He also has a 24-yard reception.
The Eagles have just seven first downs, 113 total yards, and are 1-of-6 on third down.
Washington has 10 first downs, 185 yards, and is 4-of-9 on third down.
The Eagles will receive the second-half kickoff.
