Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said the team will play its starters in Week 18 against the Cowboys.

The Commanders can improve their seeding in the NFC playoff race, as a win over the Cowboys would secure the No. 6 seed for them heading into the postseason. The Commanders already secured their spot in the playoffs with Sunday’s win over the Falcons, a higher seed could now ensure what they hope will be a more favorable matchup in the Wild Card round of the NFC playoffs.
