Jonathan Taylor scored twice as Indianapolis Colts overcame Washington Commanders 30-13 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to open this year's triple-header of NFL International Series games in London.
The Commanders initially had the better of things, limiting the Colts offense to 20 total yards in the first quarter as they claimed a 6-0 lead. But an injury to QB Marcus Mariota when sacked on the play prior to Washington's second field goal proved a turning point, with third-stringer Athan Kaliakmanis unable to lead the Commanders to victory despite a couple of eye-catching plays, including a 47-yard deep-ball TD for his first in the NFL.
Colts quarterback Daniel Jones, who had two turnovers in the first half, ran in Indianapolis' third touchdown of the game early in the fourth quarter to stretch their lead to two scores. The NFL returns to Tottenham next Sunday for a clash between the Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars, who are back in action facing the Houston Texans at Wembley a week later, on Sunday October 18.
Jonathan Taylor had 20 carries for 95 yards and 2 touchdowns. Daniel Jones completed 19 of 34 passes for 143 yards, 1 rushing TD and 1 INT. For Washington, Athan Kaliakmanis went 15/33 for 186 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT.
