With the Redskins trailing the Eagles late in Sunday’s must-win game for Washington, running back Chris Thompson sealed the deal with a 25-yard touchdown on the first play following the two-minute warning.
Thompson, the Redskins’ versatile back who has become quite the pass-catching threat this season, took a pitch from quarterback Kirk Cousins and went around the left side of the line where Trent Williams was waiting to pave the way for him.
