Tight end Logan Thomas made the play of the day for the Washington Commanders when his team needed him the most. With Washington trailing 21-3, Thomas caught quarterback Sam Howell’s fourth-down pass for a touchdown to cut the lead to 21-9.
Unfortunately, it cost Thomas. On the play, he suffered a nasty — and illegal — hit from Denver defensive back Kareem Jackson, who was penalized and ejected.
That would be his last play of the game, as the Commanders ruled him out with a concussion.

It is an unfortunate turn of events for Thomas, who missed much of training camp with a calf injury. If Washington can come back and win the game, Thomas’ touchdown will be remembered as a turning point for the Commanders.
