The Washington Commanders forced two turnovers in Sunday’s 17-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Unfortunately for Washington, it couldn’t capitalize on those turnovers.
Despite the offense not taking advantage of the takeaways, the Commanders defense put forth another stellar defensive effort Sunday. Indianapolis quarterback Sam Ehlinger completed 17 of 23 passes for 201 yards, but most of that was close to the line of the scrimmage. The Commanders held Jonathan Taylor to 76 rushing yards and forced him to fumble.
It was another dominant performance by Washington’s defensive line, led by Jonathan Allen.
