PHOTOS: The top images from Washington’s preseason loss at New England – Redskins Wire

Posted: August 14, 2021 at 12:51 am

The Washington Football Team dropped their first game of the preseason with a 22-13 loss to the New England Patriots in Foxboro.

While Washington wouldve preferred to come away with a victory, the game featured plenty of good for the WFT. Washingtons top two quarterbacks, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Taylor Heinicke, were mostly good.

Tight end Logan Thomas and wide receiver Terry McLaurin picked right up where they left off, while newcomer Adam Humphries could be a third-down machine in 2021.

Then there was the debut of undrafted rookie running back Jaret Patterson. Patterson led Washington in both rushing and receiving yards and he didnt pile up yards in junk time. Patterson played in the first half, too.

Here are some of the top images from Washington and New Englands preseason tilt on Thursday evening.
