The Washington Commanders extended a landmark season on Saturday with a win over the Detroit Lions to advance to their first NFC championship appearance since they won the Super Bowl after the 1991 season.

Washington Commanders starting right guard Sam Cosmi has a torn ACL and is out for the remainder of the NFL playoffs. Coach Dan Quinn revealed the “unfortunate news” Sunday after Cosmi injured his right knee in the Commanders’ 45-31 victory at Detroit that sent them to the NFC championship game.

Sam Cosmi has been knocked down, but he is not pitying himself. The former Texas Longhorn tackle was injured Saturday night in the second quarter of the Commanders' 45-31 upset over the Lions in Detroit.
