In a closely contested matchup, the Seattle Seahawks narrowly defeated the Washington Commanders 28-24 in Week 3 of the 2026 season. Both teams were looking to solidify their positions early in the campaign, but it was Seattle that emerged victorious, showcasing a potent offensive attack. Quarterback Jalen Milroe was the standout performer for the Seahawks, throwing for 219 yards and two touchdowns. He connected effectively with receiver Jeff Caldwell, who posted 89 receiving yards, proving to be a reliable target throughout the game. The Seahawks' offense demonstrated balance and efficiency, ultimately securing the win. Defensively, Micah Parsons made a significant impact with 1.5 sacks, consistently pressuring the Commanders' quarterback and disrupting their rhythm. The game’s turning point came late in the fourth quarter when Parsons’ relentless pursuit led to a crucial stop, allowing Seattle to hold off Washington’s late-game push. Despite L'Jarius Sneed's interception and solid defensive efforts for the Commanders, they fell just short of completing the comeback.
