In the latest installment of the Washington Commanders’ dysfunctional decision-making this season, the team is expected to make another quarterback switch, and play a rookie at the position in Week 18.
The Commanders entered Week 16 with a solid chance to make the playoffs in 2022-2023 despite a terrible start to the season. However, instead of going with backup Taylor Heinicke, a player who led the team to a 5-3-1 record in his starts in relief, head coach Ron Rivera went back to inconsistent veteran Carson Wentz as the starter. That was not a good idea.
On Sunday, the Washington Commanders were demolished by the Cleveland Browns, 24-10. The defeat eliminated them from playoff contention and Wentz was the scapegoat as the seven-year veteran had a season-worst three interceptions at the worst possible time.
Well, it seems that instead of finishing out the season in Week 18 with Wentz, Rivera will again make a QB change for the team’s matchup against the Dallas Cowboys to end the season.
