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. The team experienced an abundance of injuries at key positions, but ended the season tied for only the 26th most difficult schedule.
In Week 2, the Redskins played the Rams in Los Angeles for the first time in 23 years. In addition, this was the last of six seasons that quarterback Kirk Cousins was on the roster, as he would join the Minnesota Vikings in the following offseason.
