Philadelphia kicked off to the Commanders, who started the first drive of the game at the 40-yard line when the kickoff fell short of the landing zone. Great field position to open the game.
Jayden Daniels had an inauspicious start by sailing his 1st down pass over the head of a wide-open Olamide Zaccheasus on a short pass. Following a second incompletion, the Commanders faced 3rd & 10 early in the game. A checkdown to Brian Robinson earned 9 yards, and with the ball near midfield, Kliff Kingsbury called Robinson’s number again on 4th & 1, but was stuffed bhind the line of scrimmage.
