Jayden Daniels costs Commanders a win with baffling mistake

The Washington Commanders did not lose on Sunday, but it certainly felt like it after their baffling game management error in overtime.

The Commanders literally ran out of time during a 27-27 tie with the New York Giants at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Md. after the team seemingly forgot they were out of timeouts with the clock running down in overtime. With Washington firmly in field goal range, quarterback Jayden Daniels ran what appeared to be a designed quarterback run with 12 seconds left while deep in New York territory.

After Daniels was tackled in bounds, there was no urgency among the Commanders to get back to the line of scrimmage and spike the ball. By the time they realized what was going on, it was too late for them to get lined up in time, and the clock ran out on them.
