Overview
- The defeat dropped Washington to 3-5 with a three-game skid as Kansas City dominated the second half and outgained the visitors 432-260.
- With Jayden Daniels out due to a hamstring injury, Marcus Mariota completed 21 of 30 passes for 213 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.
- Terry McLaurin returned from a four-game quad absence, caught an 11-yard toe‑tap touchdown, then left late with a quad issue, was listed questionable, did not return, and said afterward he was optimistic.
- Left tackle Laremy Tunsil exited with a hamstring injury and was ruled out in the second half, with Brandon Coleman stepping in at tackle.
- Washington produced two first-half interceptions of Patrick Mahomes but got no points from them, and an opening-drive pass off Deebo Samuel’s hands became a Mike Danna interception, leading Dan Quinn to lament leaving too many opportunities on the field as games against Seattle and Detroit loom.
