Kenny Pickett stepped in for Jalen Hurts after the Eagles quarterback suffered a concussion early in the game against the Washington Commanders. Despite leading a touchdown drive, the Eagles ultimately lost 36-33, leaving Pickett frustrated with the outcome.
His teammates, including Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith, praised his performance, noting the challenges of stepping in mid-game. Barkley had a strong showing but struggled after Hurts' exit, as the Commanders adjusted their defense.
Pickett's stats reflected a mixed performance, but he showed resilience under pressure. The Eagles' offense struggled without Hurts, and the loss highlighted the impact of their starting quarterback.
