It wasn’t easy, it wasn’t pretty, but the Washington Football Team won their third consecutive game with a 17-15 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football.
Outside of two drives, it was a game dominated by Washington’s defense. In the first quarter, Seattle took advantage of a coverage breakdown as Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson found a wide-open Tyler Lockett down the field for a 55-yard gain. A few plays later, Wilson found tight end Gerald Everett to give the Seahawks an early 7-3 advantage.
Washington’s defense forced multiple three-and-outs in the second half, but Wilson would get one more shot at tying the game as officials overturned an apparent touchdown from Washington tight end Logan Thomas.
The Seahawks scored when Wilson found Freddie Swain for a 32-yard to cut the WFT lead to 17-15. Washington cornerback Kendall Fuller intercepted Wilson on the two-point attempt. Next, the Seahawks recovered an onside kick but were penalized on the play. They’d get one more shot, but Washington wide receiver Adam Humphries recovered to preserve the WFT win.
Here’s everything we know after Washington’s win.
