Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota was injured on Washington’s latest drive, which culminated in a Tress Way punt. Miami takes over at its 47-yard line. Josh Johnson will be Washington’s QB if Mariota is unable to return. (Commanders 13, Dolphins 6, 2:49 left in the third quarter)
Jones, a cornerback, was the hero of the day, intercepting a pass by Marcus Mariota on the first play of overtime. Talk about sudden death: Seven seconds into the OT, the game was essentially over. All that remained was the inevitable field goal that enabled everyone in the rollicking Bernabeu stadium to exhale.
Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel has no good explanation for not kicking the field goal against the Washington Commanders.

Washington Commanders vs Miami Dolphins 4th Quarter
The Commanders season has not gone as planned, and injuries have played a big part in that. Washington will be starting Marcus Mariota at QB, as Jayden Daniels misses another week after dislocating his elbow. The wide receiver room has been an injury ward all year, and the defensive line has been playing guys from the practice squad regularly.
Things are suddenly looking up for Miami, which unsuccessfully tried to muscle its way to a win late in the game Sunday. Miami heads into its bye week coming off back-to-back wins.
Cornerback Jack Jones came through for the Dolphins (4-7) on Sunday with his overtime pick, helping lead to a 16-13 victory over the Washington Commanders in the first NFL regular-season game in Spain. His forced fumble last week helped the Dolphins beat Buffalo 30-13 at home. He also had six total tackles against the Bills.
The Washington Commanders and the Miami Dolphins play Sunday in Week 11 at Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid, Spain. Kickoff is set for 9:30 a.m. ET.
