How would Washington Commanders quarterback Sam Howell respond after an ugly interception in the end zone ended the first half?
Howell led the Commanders on an impressive 75-yard drive, and with the Commanders trailing 14-10 with 23 seconds remaining in the half, instead of throwing the ball away, he forced the ball into the end zone and was picked off.
Howell, as he has shown multiple times this season, shrugged off the negative play and delivered on Washington’s first drive of the second half.
After a terrible roughing the passer penalty against rookie defensive end KJ Henry gave the Patriots a free three points, they held a 17-10 lead.
Howell then led the Commanders on a seven-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a beautiful 33-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Jahan Dotson.
