Washington Football Team studs and duds from Week 10 loss

Stud No. 4 – The rest of Washington’s pass catchers

Cam Sims and Logan Thomas were the headliners for the quality of their catches in pivotal moments, but in truth, Washington’s entire pass-catching core made an impact Sunday, and almost every player in the arsenal had a play that contributed to Washington’s comeback.

Terry McLaurin expectedly led the team with seven catches and 92 receiving yards, further establishing himself as an elite weapon capable of producing in any situation. Isaiah Wright had a career day with six catches for 59 yards, including a few first downs. Steven Sims had 46 yards on five catches, and despite a drop or two, he also helped move the offense.

Additionally, running backs Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic also served a purpose in the passing game; McKissic in particular logged seven catches for 43 yards, and he’s low-key having a career season, up to 41 catches through nine outings.

All in all, seven Washington Football Team players caught four or more catches, and six Washington players had over 40 yards. Scott Turner did a great job utilizing a strategy that spread the ball to his playmakers, but for once this season, the playmakers also consistently converted, making good on Alex Smith’s return.
