The Washington Commanders lost to the Philadelphia Eagles 24-22 in their season opener on September 14, 2026. Quarterback Jayden Daniels completed a strong final quarter but faced a missed two-point conversion attempt late in the game. After a touchdown pass to Antonio Williams, a shovel pass directed to tight end John Bates failed to result in the tying score. Daniels took responsibility for penalties that hindered the team's late-game execution, but he expressed support for offensive coordinator David Blough amid criticism of the play call.
