ARLINGTON, TEXAS — The Washington Commanders fell to 0-2 with a 37-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday at AT&T Stadium, a result Mid-Shore NFL fans tracked alongside Baltimore’s own Week 2 finale.
On the opening drive, Dak Prescott connected with CeeDee Lamb en route to an early Dallas lead. Prescott finished 26-of-31 for 279 yards and four touchdown passes. Lamb caught eight passes for 153 yards and two scores.
Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels was carted off just before halftime after dislocating his left elbow — the same elbow he injured twice last season. Head coach Dan Quinn said initial X-rays showed no fractures, with further testing set for Monday. Marcus Mariota played the second half.
Daniels completed 11 of 17 passes for 96 yards before exiting and added 69 rushing yards on seven carries. Stefon Diggs caught two touchdown passes — a 4-yard score and a 20-yard catch in the fourth quarter — for three on the season. Washington outgained Dallas 389-332 but could not overcome the deficit after the injury.
Prescott also passed Tony Romo for the most touchdown throws in Cowboys franchise history (249). Dallas hosts its next NFC East slate while Washington looks ahead without a clear return date for Daniels.
