Ekeler was running the ball back on a kickoff when he got tackled and thrown face-first to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>He would not move from the position that he was tackled in. It was obvious that Ekeler was knocked unconscious. The Washington Commanders running back was down for so long that the broadcast went into commercial, came back, and was still down on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>He eventually got help to his feet and was able to walk off to the sidelines.<\/p>\n<div id=\"incontent-ad-1\" class=\"pw-incontent\" data-label=\"Advertisement\"><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=reddawg77089&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1860797254598119560&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.totalprosports.com%2Fnfl%2Fvideo-scary-moment-as-commanders-rb-austin-ekeler-laid-motionless-after-being-knocked-completely-unconscious-against-the-cowboys%2F&amp;sessionId=89cd58bef1a9dcdec0f9f712bb48ad12f6e28400&amp;siteScreenName=totalprosports&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1860797254598119560\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe>+<\/div>\n<div>\n<h2 id=\"h-the-washington-commanders-have-lost-three-straight\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Washington Commanders Have Lost Three-Straight<\/h2>\n<p>The Commanders are now 7-5 and have now lost three straight games at a key point in the season.<\/p>\n<p>The worst of the losses came on Sunday to the Dallas Cowboys, who were missing as many as seven starters.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the team falls even further behind the first-place\u00a0Philadelphia Eagles\u00a0in the NFC East.<\/p>\n<p>Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels\u00a0finished\u00a0with 274 passing yards, 72 rushing yards, three total touchdowns, and one interception.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Austin Ekeler (Photo via Fox) Washington Commanders running back\u00a0Austin Ekeler\u00a0had a frightening moment against the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys.
