NFL Note - Washington Redskins Thompson, Chris

Sep 25, 2017 - 7:22 AM RB Chris Thompson had six receptions for 150 yards and a touchdown, and the Redskins posted a convincing 27-10 win over the Raiders on Sunday night.

Thompson, Washington's third-down back, caught a 22-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter and had a 74-yard, momentum-turning catch and run late in the third quarter. Thompson now has four touchdowns in three games.

"They're paying me to win my one-on-one matchups and make plays and be a spark for this offense," Thompson said. "Third downs especially, even in second-and-longs, I'm supposed to make plays ... so I've got to just continue to be good for my team."

For good measure, Thompson also rushed eight times for 38 yards.
