Philadelphia finished with 91 yards rushing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Both teams committed costly penalties. The Eagles&#8217; Jake Elliott made a field goal to cut Washington&#8217;s lead to three points in the fourth quarter, but he had to try again because of an illegal formation penalty and missed from 41 yards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Drew Stevens kicked four field goals for Washington, including a 56-yarder late in the first quarter. Daniels connected with Stefon Diggs for an 8-yard touchdown in the second quarter that tied it at 10-all, and Washington led 13-10 at halftime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">The Commanders had a sloppy first few drives. Stevens missed his first field goal attempt, from 55 yards, and Chig Okonkwo lost a fumble.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Barkley&#8217;s 3-yard touchdown run put Philadelphia ahead 10-0 in the first quarter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">On Washington&#8217;s final drive of the first half, Daniels took a hard hit and was slow to get to his feet, but he stayed in the game as the Commanders finished with 27 unanswered points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">The Commanders <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/nfc-east-woes-giants-cowboys-commanders-eagles-4241f0bf299225428058bb9f1c5b196e\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">remain in the hunt in a weak NFC East<\/a>, two games behind the first-place New York Giants, despite opening the season with just one win in their first six games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Injuries<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Eagles: Safety Michael Carter suffered an abdominal injury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Commanders: Running back Jeremy McNichols limped to the locker room in the second half with a left foot injury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Up next<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Eagles: Host the Giants next Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Commanders: Host the Los Angeles Rams next Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">___<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/nfl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">See AP\u2019s full NFL coverage here<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 The Associated Press.
