It wasn’t a total loss for Howell. The second-year quarterback shed last week’s disaster — when he was picked four times and sacked nine times in a 37-3 loss at Buffalo — to flash a glimpse of why the Commanders believe so strongly in the North Carolina product.Stafford overcomes injury to throw winning TD pass to Nacua in OT to give Rams 29-23 win over ColtsThe 23-year-old Howell sprung to life on the final drive of regulation.
With a potential win in sight, the Commanders skipped the 2-point conversion try and instead sent the game into OT on the kick. Rivera said the offense was exhausted.Howell had already gone 6 of 7 in the fourth on the drive that helped the tie game at 24-all on Brian Robinson Jr.'s 15-yard touchdown run. With the game on the line, he took the Commanders 64 yards on 10 plays — the final eight came with Rivera all out of timeouts.
