Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders just pulled off a miracle.
With his Commanders trailing the Chicago Bears 15–12 in the closing seconds and the ball at their own 48-yard line, Daniels took the snap and dropped back. He avoided the rush as the Bears pressured him, then unleashed the ball toward the goal line on a Hail Mary attempt. That prayer was answered.
The ball was tipped and fell right into receiver Noah Brown's hands. It was truly an unbelievable play, tipped by a Bears defender and Brown was in the perfect spot. The ball went nearly 70 yards in the air and wound up exactly where it needed to be.
HAIL NOAH!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely unbelievable.
That's a killer for the Bears and rookie Caleb Williams, who authored a furious comeback from down 12–0 to leading 15–12 with 23 seconds remaining. They just couldn't hold the lead.
That's a play we'll be seeing on highlight reels for years.
In a battle of the top two picks from the 2024 NFL draft, Daniels came out ahead because of his final heave.
