The Washington Commanders (6-5) look to win their sixth game in the past seven weeks when they host the Atlanta Falcons (5-6). Follow along for live updates.
this week, but Taylor Heinicke will remain the Commanders’ starting quarterback for the foreseeable future after Washington went 4-1 in Wentz’s absence. With five wins in their past six games, the Commanders enter Sunday’s showdown with Atlanta at 6-5, a half-game out of the NFC’s final playoff spot. The Falcons are right behind them, at 5-6.
Washington’s running game has fueled the team’s resurgence, but Heinicke could be poised for a big day against an Atlanta defense that’s allowing the fourth-most passing yards per game in the NFL. Terry McLaurin has been Heinicke’s top target, with 28 catches for 425 yards over the past five weeks.
