The Washington Football Team lost its first preseason game, though it took a failed two-point conversion with a chance to tie the game and a 91-yard touchdown run from Rhamondre Stevenson with just over a minute left to seal the deal.
All in all, it was a promising showing from Ron Rivera’s side. Ryan Fitzpatrick looks ready for the regular season. Taylor Heinicke seems poised to cement himself as the backup, and Sam Cosmi looked the part of a starting right tackle.
Those were just some of the main takeaways. However, the Football Team will be hoping to get back on the winning side of things in Week 2 vs the Bengals.
For any audacious Washington fans looking to bet some preseason action, here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Football Team Injury Report vs Bengals Week 2 Preseason

Football Team vs Bengals Prediction Week 2 Preseason
We wouldn’t feel confident betting Washington in the preseason unless they had a distinct competitive advantage, and they’ll have exactly that on Friday, as Cincinnati already decided that 2020 No. 1 overall pick Joe Burrow won’t play.
Look for Rivera’s side to win this one thanks to strong defensive performance.
