2017 Washington Redskins season

Washington Redskins' 86th season in the National Football League

The 2017 Washington Redskins season was the franchise's 86th season in the National Football League (NFL) and the fourth under head coach Jay Gruden. The Redskins ended the season losing eight of the final 13 games after a 2–1 start, failing to improve on their 8–7–1 record from the previous season, and were mathematically eliminated from playoff contention with a loss to the Chargers. This was likely due to the abundance of injuries at key positions and one of the league's toughest schedules.
