The Week 1 Plays That Stood Out, From Josh Allen's Heroics To Kyle Monangai's TD

Drew Stevens - Struggles in loss Stevens missed one of his two field-goal attempts and one of his two PATs in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Stevens missed four total points of value in a game that was decided by two points. The undrafted free agent out of Iowa made a 55-yard field goal but missed one from 54 yards. The rookie's consistency will be something to watch as the Commanders head into a Week 2 matchup with the Cowboys that could once again come down to special teams execution.

Ben Sinnott - Doesn't record a stat Sinnott played on 18 offensive snaps and 16 special-teams snaps but did not record a stat in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

Impact The tight end was third in his positional rotation behind Chig Okonkwo (38 snaps) and John Bates (32). Sinnott caught 16 passes across his first two regular seasons in the NFL, but he has functioned mainly as a blocker in his professional career.

Jaylin Lane - Has strong return day Lane caught his only target for four yards while returning four punts for 53 yards and three kicks for 95 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Lane played 18 offensive snaps and 12 special teams snaps in the contest. The primary kick and punt returner amassed 148 total return yards, providing strong field position as the Commanders battled a divisional rival.

Kaytron Allen - Limited action in NFL debut Allen turned four carries into 16 yards during the Commanders' 24-22 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Allen didn't record his first NFL carry until the third quarter, though he did log three rushes for 11 yards during the Commanders' final offensive drive of the game. The rookie sixth-rounder played only seven snaps on offense, well behind fellow running backs Jacory Croskey-Merritt (34) and Rachaad White (29). Allen figures to see limited work out of the Commanders' backfield this season unless one or both of Croskey-Merrit and White were to miss time. Washington has another NFC East matchup on tap, a Week 2 road tilt against Dallas on Sept. 20.

8 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

John Bates - Two catches in loss Bates caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Bates started along with Chig Okonkwo at tight end, and he garnered more than two targets in a regular-season game for the first time since Week 9 of the 2025 campaign. Bates was on the field for 34 of the team's 70 total offensive snaps while also logging 15 more snaps on special teams.

8 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Dyami Brown - Held without catch Week 1 Brown failed to haul in either of his two targets during the Commanders' 24-22 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Brown played 37 of 70 offensive snaps (52.9 percent), which was third-most among Commanders wide receivers behind Terry McLaurin (61) and Stefon Diggs (44). However, Brown was unable reel in the two passes he saw from Jayden Daniels, whereas rookie third-rounder Antonio Williams finished with a 4-66-1 receiving line despite playing only 26 offensive snaps. Brown will look for better results in Washington's Week 2 clash against Dallas on Sept. 20.

Antonio Williams - Catches TD in NFL debut Williams hauled in all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown during the Commanders' 24-22 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Williams played only 26 of 70 offensive snaps (37.1 percent), which was fourth-most among Commanders wide receivers in Sunday's loss. However, the rookie third-rounder ended up leading the Commanders in receiving yards while finishing second behind veteran Stefon Diggs in targets (nine). Williams was close to scoring on his first NFL catch for 16 yards late in the second quarter, falling short of the goal line before Jacory Croskey-Merritt punched the ball in on a one-yard rushing touchdown on the next play. Williams followed that up with a 33-yard catch early in the fourth quarter before hauling in a one-yard touchdown pass from Jayden Daniels late in the frame. It was an encouraging NFL debut from Williams, who may have benefited from the Eagles' secondary focusing on limiting Terry McLaurin, though the former may have shown enough against Philadelphia to warrant additional playing time moving forward. The Commanders will stay on the road for their Week 2 clash against the Cowboys on Sept. 20.

Dorance Armstrong - Reinstated from suspension Armstrong was reinstated from his one-game suspension Monday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Armstrong was suspended for one game to open the 2026 campaign after violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, so he was unavailable for Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles. Armstrong will likely return to his starting role at strongside linebacker in Week 2 versus the Cowboys.
