Dallas Cowboys' NT Johnathan Hankins had a standout performance with two sacks against the Commanders, marking his second multi-sack game of his career. His last multi-sack game was in 2014 as a member of the Giants. Micah Parsons was irate, claiming he was held on a play, while DT Osa Odighizuwa led a successful fourth-and-1 stop. Hankins' performance, particularly his second sack, was crucial in the game, as the Cowboys secured their third fourth-down stop despite his absence from the field. This marked one of Hankins' best seasons, with his most recent two-sack game being nine years ago against the same team, the Commanders, on Thanksgiving.

Cowboys hybrid DE Micah Parsons is irate, arguing he was held on that third-and-1 pass that CB Stephon Gilmore broke up. It proved not to matter: DT Osa Odighizuwa leads a crowd of Dallas defenders in backfield on fourth-and-1 stop. Turnover on downs.
