Cowboys lead Commanders 24-10 at halftime

The Cowboys have been on point offensively throughout the first half, with Dallas taking a 24-10 lead into halftime.

Dallas' latest score came with 19 seconds left in the period, with Brandon Aubrey nailing a 42-yard field goal.

Quarterback Dak Prescott had a strong first half, with his best throw going for an 86-yard touchdown to KaVonte Turpin midway through the second quarter. He ended the half 11-of-20 for 174 yards with two TDs.

Prescott tossed a 6-yard touchdown to Jake Ferguson to open the scoring.

The Cowboys were quite aggressive and it paid off, going 4-of-4 on fourth down in the first 30 minutes. Three of the fourth-down conversions came on Dallas' second possession.

Notably, Cowboys running back Javonte Williams is questionable to return with a shoulder injury. He rushed for 54 yards on 13 carries with a touchdown in the first half.

Malik Davis also has 50 yards on eight carries.

On the other side, Josh Johnson is 6-of-9 for 109 yards. Deebo Samuel is the leading rusher and receiver, gaining 25 yards on the ground and 68 yards through the air. His 41-yard catch-and-run early in the contest was punctuated by the big wideout knocking the helmet off of Donovan Wilson on contact.

Washington running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt put in a 10-yard touchdown in the second quarter. He's rushed for 13 yards so far on Christmas Day.

Commanders center Tyler Biadasz went down midway through the second quarter on a Washington run play that went for no gain. He had to be helped off the field with trainers after his right leg was rolled up on. Nick Allegrettim moved over to center with Andrew Wylie coming in to play right guard. He is questionable to return with a knee injury.

Commanders cornerback Jonathan Jones was evaluated for a concussion but was cleared to return.

Washington will receive the second-half kickoff.
