Daniels' Buzzer-Beater: Commanders Steal Victory in Heart-Stopping Finish

The Commanders clawed their way back in the third, but the Eagles answered with a touchdown of their own, taking a 21-14 lead. With less than a minute left, the Commanders found themselves facing a fourth-and-goal situation, all but needing a miracle.
Enter Jahan Dotson. He leaped high, securing the pass in the end zone, sending shockwaves through the stadium. It was a play that will be remembered for years to come, a testament to his incredible athleticism and the never-say-die attitude of this Commanders team.
