While not everything was perfect, rookie Sam Howell provided a glimmer of hope for the Commanders’ future at QB. _RyanFowler_ breaks down Howell's first start and what it could mean for the QB and the team in 2023. HTTC
The second Washington quarterback to throw and rush for a touchdown in a game during his rookie season, Howell’s first throw was storybook. While it was a simple crossing route to Terry McLaurin, it was a throw that looked impossible to complete just a week ago when Carson Wentz was under center.
Howell provided a breath of fresh air for the Commanders. While not everything was perfect, he looked every bit like a talent that could hold the key to unlocking Washington’s offensive ceiling moving into next fall. Washington’s offense is littered with high-octane playmakers like McLaurin, first-rounder—who amassed three catches for 72 yards in his first work with Howell—Curtis Samuel, and the two aforementioned bruisers in the ground game .
It’s been a question for decades as to who will ultimately fix the burgundy and gold’s woes at the quarterback position, and while a 20-point victory in Week 18 has to be taken with a grain of salt no matter how good the former Tar Heel looked, you have to understand that Washington hasn’t had many reasons to get excited about the path in the pocket for some time. Howell more than took advantage of his snaps in his NFL debut.
