Stefon Diggs scored a touchdown in Week 1. He followed with a hug on the goalpost. That drew an unsportsmanlike penalty. The flag came at a key time. Washington wanted to tie the Eagles. The extra point attempt was pushed back. The team could not bounce back. The Commanders' comeback fell short. It was an expensive error. Teammates and coaches defended him after the game. Washington lost that one. Diggs still has support from the team. They shift focus to Week 2.
