Sam Howell is the NFL’s leading passer through 10 weeks. Commanders hope he’s their long-term QB

The quarterback who has thrown for the most yards in the NFL this season isn’t Patrick Mahomes, Jalen Hurts, or Justin Herbert. It’s Sam Howell, who has the most attempts and completions as the Washington Commanders have made him their focal point. The goal is to see if he’s the long-term answer, and Howell keeps showing that he can be that guy. (Associated Press)
