Washington running back J.D. McKissic scored both of the WFT’s touchdowns in the team’s 17-15 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football.
Unfortunately, McKissic didn’t finish the game as he was injured on a third-down reception on Washington’s final drive. Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke, facing a third-and-14, dropped the ball short to McKissic to get enough yards to go for it on fourth down.
As McKissic was going down, Seattle safety Quandre Diggs hit McKissic, and he was down on the field for several minutes. Even though McKissic was sitting up and moving, Washington’s medical staff brought out the cart to take McKissic into the locker room for further evaluation.
