Jayden Daniels' play on Sunday is bound for the history books. With almost no time left on the clock, the Washington Commanders were down three points, trailing 15-12 to the Chicago Bears.
The ball was snapped to Daniels and he scrambled to find an open receiver but was blocked by defenders everywhere. He then let the ball fly from near the 40-yard line. It was a nearly impossible throw. But the Commanders had nothing to lose as the clock was almost up for any other play.
But Daniels pulled it off as the ball landed in Noah Brown's hands who was in the endzone. The score bumped up to 15-18 and the Commanders recorded their sixth win of the season.

Lamar Jackson praises Jayden Daniels
After the Baltimore Ravens beat the Commanders to end their four-game winning streak earlier this month, Lamar Jackson was asked about the hype that the rookie QB was receiving. Jackson said that the #2 overall pick deserved all the hype he was getting.
"I believe he deserves all the hype he's getting. He played a tremendous game out there, came up short. He's been proving it, you know. His rookie season, first six games he's been playing amazing."
He might not have won the game against the Ravens, but receiving adulation from a 2x NFL MVP is no unremarkable feat either!
