The Washington Commanders travel to Lincoln Financial Field to meet the Philadelphia Eagles for Monday Night Football in the final game of Week 10. Washington hopes to improve to .500 on the season while the Eagles go for their ninth straight win without a defeat.
Commanders Look To Avenge Home Loss
Washington is looking to rebound from their 20-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at home after winning three straight games. The Commanders are at the bottom of the NFC East with a 4-5 record and are two games behind the third-place Dallas Cowboys. They also have yet to win a game in the division and hope to get revenge on the Eagles for handing them a 24-8 loss at home in Week 3.
Quarterback Carson Wentz took a lot of hits in that first game against Philly and is still recovering after having surgery on his broken finger. Washington struggled on offense in that game and hasn’t come close to their season-high output of 28 points, which they had in the Week 1 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Taylor Heinicke will get another start tonight until Wentz is eligible to come off the injured reserve in Week 11.
