ASHBURN — Kirk Cousins said he simply did not see did not see Kyle Fuller lurking in the flat before he floated a pass intended for wide receiver Pierre Garcon down the right sideline.
Late in the third quarter of the Washington Redskins’ 24-21 win against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, Fuller intercepted Cousins‘ pass and returned it to the Redskins’ 21-yard line. Three plays later, the Bears tied the score, 21-21, on consecutive rushes from running back Matt Forte.
It was one of the few blemishes in Cousins‘ best road performance of the season as he completed 24 of 31 passes for 300 yards and a touchdown.
