The former San Fransico 49er Deebo Samuel had yet to see a target in the preseason, but picked up a single carry for 19 yards against the Bengals, which sparked a four-play 74-yard touchdown drive, which caused Washington to sit Jayden Daniels and a few more projected starters for the remainder of the game.

Wide receiver Mitchell Tinsley scored two touchdowns on passes from quarterback Jake Browning in the second quarter of the NFL Week 2 preseason game against the Commanders. Tinsley signed with the Commanders as an undrafted free agent out of college and was signed by the Bengals for this preseason.

The Washington Commanders fell to 0-2 in the preseason with Monday's 31-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Fortunately for Washington, starting quarterback Jayden Daniels played and led the Commanders on a four-play, 71-yard drive that took up less than two minutes of the clock.
