The Air Jayden t-shirts have arrived!
Washington Commanders rookie QB phenom Jayden Daniels has been know to take defenses’ souls and make them look silly in the process. That’s what happened against the Chicago Bears as Daniels, who was dealing with a rib injury, led his team to victory on an after the buzzer Hail Mary touchdown pass to WR Noah Brown. That play was the most watched moment of the season, and spawned several shirts of its own from our good friends at BreakingT.
They’re back with another great t-shirt immortalizing Jayden Daniels mid-air, while a Bears DB lays facedown on the field, defeated. Daniels went on to win the FedEx Air player of the week for that performance, and essentially locked up the NFL Rookie of the Year award after outplaying No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams again.
The Washington Commanders travelled to New Jersey last Sunday to complete their sweep of the New York Giants. Their offense neutralized their highly rated defensive line, and did it without starting RB Brian Robinson Jr. who was a pre-game scratch with a hamstring injury. Jayden Daniels played his second game after sustaining a rib injury early in Week 7. The rookie of the year looked good in another efficient outing that saw him throw two touchdowns to Terry McLaurin.
Washington has some tests coming up as people still question whether they are legit contenders after their massive organizational overhaul. They made a big trade for former Saints CB Marshon Lattimore, and are preparing for the Pennsylvania crawl, with games against the Steelers and Eagles in a 10-day stretch.
Washington is now 7-2, and they still have sole possession of first place in the NFC East. FanDuel had them at 6 1⁄2 wins before the season started, and that over hit for a lot of optimistic Commanders fans after they swept the Giants. Washington is still not the favorite in the division, despite having one more win(and game played), than Philadelphia. The Eagles look like the Commanders only competition for the NFC East division title, and the two teams won’t meet until a Week 11 Thursday Night Football game in Philly.
