Sam Howell throws for 300 yards, scores on the ground in Week 12 loss

Sam Howell completed 28 of 44 passes for 300 yards with no touchdowns and one interception, adding 13 yards and a score on two carries in Thursday’s 45-10 loss to the Cowboys.

Fantasy Impact: Howell rushed for his third touchdown of the season Thursday. That, along with his 300 passing yards, was a relief for fantasy managers who had to deploy him in a particularly difficult matchup. Howell has had his ups and downs in his first full season as the Commanders’ starting QB, but the overall numbers are there to put him firmly on the QB1 fringe most weeks. Howell has now passed for 300-plus yards in 5 of 12 games – 299 in another one – while accounting for 21 touchdowns.
