Commanders Stun Eagles as Bobby Wagner Becomes Third Player With 2,000 Tackles

Washington finishes 5-12 with an uncertain offseason ahead.

Overview

  • Washington closed its season with a 24-17 Week 18 win over Philadelphia to finish 5-12.
  • Bobby Wagner recorded five tackles to reach 2,000 for his career, joining London Fletcher and Ray Lewis as the only players to hit the mark.
  • Fletcher honored Wagner postgame in the locker room, and coach Dan Quinn called Wagner the best tackler he has coached.
  • Wagner declined to discuss his future after playing on a one-year, $9 million deal and totaling 162 tackles for his 14th straight 100-tackle season; Pro Football Focus graded him 78.6 with an NFL-high 1,068 defensive snaps.
