Ron Rivera spoke to the media after today’s 28-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Sam Howell was benched, and replaced by backup Jacoby Brissett. He was able to lead the offense on two scoring drives, getting Washington within a score of tying the game. Rivera said that he made the decision to switch QBs, and he did it to protect Sam Howell from the Rams pass rush. Brissett moved the offense, and made two big-time throws to Terry McLaurin.
