LANDOVER, Md. -- After Jalen Hurts left with a concussion, Jayden Daniels threw five touchdown passes while running at will in the rookie quarterback's latest masterful performance, and the Washington Commanders ended the Philadelphia Eagles' winning streak at 10 by rallying to defeat the NFC East leaders 36-33 on Sunday.
Daniels' heroics culminated with a 57-yard touchdown drive in the final 1:58, finding Jamison Crowder in the end zone with 6 seconds left. He bounced back from throwing an interception on the previous possession and led the Commanders back after they fell behind by 14 points seven minutes into the game and trailed by 14 going into the fourth quarter.
They are now on the verge of making the playoffs after handing Philadelphia its first loss since Sept. 29.
The Eagles played without Hurts for the vast majority of the game and failed to clinch the division and one of the conference's top two seeds despite Saquon Barkley running for 109 yards and two touchdowns in the first quarter alone.
