Antonio Washington Dazzles in Bell Victory
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Antonio Washington stepped things up a notch to give Bell the 'W'. Washington turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 97 yards and two touchdowns. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 76 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Washington might just drop another big game when he faces off against Anacostia on Thursday. When Washington last faced the Indians back in November of 2023, he rushed for 181 yards while picking up 8.6 yards per carry, and also threw for 12 yards and a touchdown.

A Season-Best Effort from Tariq Brown Leads Ron Brown over Anacostia

On the year, Brown has averaged 7.2 total tackles per game and for the season has 6 sacks.
