Commanders’ players react to starting the season 2-0

The Washington Commanders are 2-0 after Sunday’s 35-33 win over the Denver Broncos. Behind quarterback Sam Howell, the Commanders mounted an impressive comeback from a 21-3 deficit to defeat the Broncos. In addition to Howell, Washington’s defense sacked Denver quarterback Russell Wilson seven times.

It’s been 12 years since Washington began a season with two consecutive wins.

Naturally, players were excited. Unlike in previous years, there’s a new energy surrounding the franchise. Obviously, the ownership situation is one major reason, but the promise surrounding Howell is another. There was also the return of defensive end Chase Young.

After the game, several players took to Twitter to react to the win. Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons was even paying attention, sending a message to his friend and former college teammate, Jahan Dotson.

Here are some of the Commanders’ reactions to the win.
