Overview
- The victory ended Washington’s eight-game slide and was its first since Oct. 5, improving the team to 4-10.
- Jaylin Lane broke the game open with a 63-yard punt-return touchdown, and rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt led with 96 rushing yards.
- Mike Sainristil’s interception set up a Jake Moody field goal, and Ben Sinnott added a 36-yard catch alongside Marcus Mariota’s 51-yard touchdown to Terry McLaurin.
