WATCH: Falcons' Cordarrelle Patterson Catches Three Touchdowns vs. Washington
Cordarrelle Patterson has proven once again that he can do it all for the Atlanta Falcons.
Through a little more than two quarters, Patterson has found the end zone three times for the Falcons.
With 11:07 left in the second quarter, Patterson found the end zone for the third time this season with a 42-yard catch from quarterback Matt Ryan to take a 10-0 lead.
Here's a look at the touchdown pass:

Patterson was lined up on the far side of the field as Ryan went back in the play action, but the Washington Football Team's secondary forgot to assign a defender for him, leading to a wide-open touchdown that could get to Patterson on a rainbow pass.
Patterson's second touchdown came with just 14 seconds left in the first half that gave the Falcons a lead heading into halftime.
Patterson caught a 12-yard pass that capped off an 11-play, 75-yard drive lasting just under two minutes.
But Patterson wasn't finished. He added another touchdown for the Falcons with 11:09 left in the third quarter on a 14-yard catch.
This is the first time in Patterson's career where he's scored three touchdowns. It's just his third multi-TD game of his career and second in three weeks with the Falcons.
If the Falcons want to hold on to this lead, they would be smart to continue finding ways to get Patterson involved whether it comes as a receiver, running back or return specialist.
