Tar Heels in NFL: Sam Howell leads Washington past Dallas in first career start
Posted Jan 9, 2023
Former UNC quarterback Sam Howell couldn’t have started his NFL career much better. His first professional pass in a regular-season game went for a 16-yard touchdown. More importantly, he led the Washington Commanders to a 26-6 victory Sunday over their rival Dallas Cowboys and was given the game ball from Coach Ron Rivera after the game.
