Jayden Daniels, take a bow.
Billed as one of the best matchups of the week — featuring the two betting favorites to win Offensive Rookie of the Year in Daniels and Bears quarterback Caleb Williams — Commanders vs. Bears delivered. Daniels threw a game-winning, 52-yard Hail Mary touchdown pass as time expired.
Daniels launched a pass into the Washington, D.C. sky that was tipped and miraculously landed into the hands of receiver Noah Brown to clinch an 18-15 victory for the Commanders.
