Packers Beat Commanders 27-18 on Thursday Night Behind Relentless Defense

Green Bay's overhauled defense throttled Washington to validate an early-season surge.

Overview

  • Micah Parsons headlined a front that generated constant pressure and four sacks as Washington opened with three straight punts.
  • Jordan Love surpassed 300 total yards with two touchdown passes, connecting often with Tucker Kraft, who posted 124 yards and a score, and Romeo Doubs, who caught another touchdown.
  • Josh Jacobs scored again to extend his touchdown streak to 11 consecutive games.
  • Washington’s offense stalled as Jayden Daniels finished 24-of-42 for 200 yards with one touchdown and the Ekeler–Croskey-Merritt tandem managed just 34 rushing yards.
  • Multiple injuries were reported, with Austin Ekeler feared to have an Achilles injury, Deatrich Wise Jr. and Packers receiver Jayden Reed leaving the game, and Daniels seen limping as official updates remain pending.
