Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels, Heisman Trophy-winning quarterbacks from LSU, headlined the “Monday Night Football” matchup in the second preseason game for each team

Starting quarterback Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals ' first-team offense left the team's NFL preseason game against the Washington Commanders on Monday Night Football at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland, early in the second quarter.

Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels did not attempt a pass against the Bengals, but did score on a 14-yard touchdown run.

One player who has benefited from the development has been former Illinois running back Chase Brown. After taking over as Cincinnati's starter in Week 6 last season, Brown has sprinted forward without looking back. He got five carries on Monday and rushed for 22 yards – and even scored the first touchdown of the game.

ESPN's Laura Rutledge and the "Monday Night Football" crew were in the nation's capital this evening to cover a preseason showdown between the Cincinnati Bengals and Washington Commanders. It didn't take long for fans to compliment her performance and appearance.

Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson made the trip with the team for the game Monday night against the Commanders, but did not play.

If Mitchell Tinsley was on the Cincinnati Bengals' roster bubble heading into Monday night, he's probably feeling pretty good about his chances of making the team after the way he played during his team's 31-17 win over the Washington Commanders.

A couple of receivers make strong cases while the starting defense is once again woeful in 31-17 win over the Commanders.
