The Washington Commanders secured a stunning 33-31 victory over the Seattle Seahawks, snapping Seattle's impressive winning streak. Quarterback Marcus Mariota, stepping in for the injured Jayden Daniels, delivered a standout performance, throwing three touchdown passes to guide Washington to a crucial win.
This victory marks a significant moment for the Commanders, who were looking to avoid an 0-3 start to the season. The Seahawks, who had won twelve consecutive games dating back to November 2025 and started the current season with two wins, were unable to overcome Mariota's offensive prowess. The game also saw Commanders linebacker Leo Chenal leave the field on a stretcher due to a neck injury.
