Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins relieved an injured Robert Griffin III late in Sunday's contest against the Broncos in Week 8.

Cousins was picked off by Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie on his first series, who took it back 75 yards for a touchdown. Two plays later, Cousins was picked off again by Shaun Phillips to put the game out of hands for Washington.

Cousins completed 5 of 9 passes for 48 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions in a 45-21 defeat. He could be in line to play Week 9 against the Chargers if Grifffin is not healthy enough to play.
