The Washington Commanders finished the 2022 NFL season with an 8-8-1 record. In many predictions and projections ahead of the season, most had Washington from anywhere between six and 10 wins. The low end of those predictions had more to do with the Commanders’ acquisition of quarterback Carson Wentz.
Wentz ended up starting seven games for the Commanders. Washington was 2-5 in those games. Taylor Heinicke was 5-3-1 in eight starts under center, while rookie Sam Howell was 1-0 after a Week 18 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
