One of the most thrilling moments was Kittle’s 54-yard TD reception down the left side of the field in the third quarter.
Meanwhile, Washington might have drawn first blood against the New York Giants this past Sunday, but it was New York who got the last laugh. The Commanders fell to the Giants 20-12. No one had a standout game offensively for Washington, but QB Taylor Heinicke led the way with one touchdown. That receiving effort made it the first game that Dotson has posted more than 100 yards receiving.
