WATCH: Jahan Dotson gets the Commanders on the board against Cowboys

The Washington Commanders were struggling offensively in the first half against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. The running game was working, but in each Washington drive, a penalty killed any positive momentum.

Finally, on Washington’s fourth drive of the day, the Commanders finished with a touchdown as quarterback Carson Wentz found rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson for a 10-yard touchdown pass to put Washington ahead, 7-6.

The touchdown capped off a seven-play, 65-yard drive that last over 3 minutes and 35 seconds. The big play for Washington was a 33-yard run by J.D. McKissic to put the Commanders in the red zone for the first time in the game.

The catch was Dotson’s first of the game.

Wentz has completed seven of 11 passes for 45 yards in the first half, while the Commanders have rushed for 94 yards.
