The Washington Commanders edged out the Tennessee Titans in a low-scoring affair on December 6, 2026, winning 17-13 at Nissan Stadium. The game was defined by stout defensive stands and a grinding ground game, with neither offense able to find consistent rhythm through the air.

Washington struck first in the opening quarter, capitalizing on a short field after a Titans punt. Running back Brian Robinson punched in a 4-yard touchdown to cap a 7-play drive. Tennessee answered early in the second with a 42-yard field goal from Nick Folk, but the Commanders extended their lead just before halftime when quarterback Sam Howell connected with wide receiver Terry McLaurin on a 23-yard slant for a score.

The Commanders milked the clock, and kicker Joey Slye connected on a 48-yard field goal to push the lead to four.
