With Cosmi not in the game, Washington was forced to put Nick Allegretti into the game, who was benched back in Week 4 in their loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Allegretti has extensive experience at both guard spots and center, but was one of the worst offensive linemen in the NFL during his time with the Commanders this season.

In some good news,

Cosmi just returned for the Commanders.
