The Washington Commanders completed the 2024 NFL regular season on Sunday with a dramatic 23-19 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Washington made it exciting again, as quarterback Marcus Mariota found wide receiver Terry McLaurin in the back of the end zone with three seconds remaining to beat Dallas.
Mariota relieved Jayden Daniels after head coach Dan Quinn sidelined him for the second half, not wanting to risk injury heading into next week’s playoff game. Mariota delivered, completing 15 of 18 passes for 161 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown, and his 33-yard run with less than 30 seconds remaining put Washington in position to win.
The Commanders finished the regular season 12-5 and play the Buccaneers in next weekend’s wild-card round.
Here are the best photos from Washington’s thrilling win over the Cowboys.
