The Seattle Seahawks will face Dwayne Haskins in their game against Washington on Sunday, as starting quarterback Alex Smith has been ruled out with a calf injury.
This could be fortunate for Seattle, as Washington has won four straight games under Smith, although Haskins closed their last game out, completing seven of his 12 passes for 51 yards. Haskins played the first four games of the season, throwing four touchdowns and three interceptions with Washington going 1-3 in that span.
It seems like a favorable matchup on paper, but if Week 13 against the New York Giants has taught us anything, it’s that no victory is guaranteed in the NFL. In addition, Washington leads the NFC East and will be determined to win every game they have left. The Seahawks must not take Washington lightly if they wish to come out of D.C. with a victory.
Seattle and Washington are set to kick off at 10:00 a.m. PT on Sunday. Find everything you need to know to catch the action here.
