BALTIMORE — Kirk Cousins filled in capably for injured quarterback Robert Griffin III, throwing for 190 yards and a fluke touchdown, as the Washington Redskins beat the Baltimore Ravens, 31-13, on Saturday night.
With Griffin sidelined by a concussion, Cousins went 20-for-27 for 190 yards with an interception to help the Redskins take a 14-13 halftime lead. His second touchdown pass of the preseason happened after intended receiver Andre Roberts deflected a pass that was plucked out of the air and carried into the end zone by Jamison Crowder.
Colt McCoy started the third quarter with Washington’s second-team offense and produced touchdowns on his first two drives, although both scores came against the Ravens’ reserves and the last march covered only 20 yards following an interception.
