WASHINGTON - Alex Smith is back in the driver's seat, and he's gonna have to rev up Washington's offense today against Detroit.
The Washington Football Team is in Motor City to take on the Lions at 1 p.m. Sunday on FOX 5.
Detroit is in last place, but at 3-5 is still having a better 2020 campaign than Washington.

Washington is Alex Smith's team again after starting quarterback Kyle Allen suffered a broken ankle against New York. Former 1st-round draft pick Dwayne Haskins remains on the bench for now.
