Jayden Daniels delivered Washington’s first playoff win in nearly two decades last weekend. The rookie quarterback was sensational as the Commanders squeaked by the Buccaneers on a last-second field goal that doinked in off the upright. Washington now heads north to Detroit to face the NFC’s top seed. The Lions earned a first-round bye by going a conference-best 15-2 on the season and will begin their quest for the franchise’s first Super Bowl championship on Saturday night.
The Commanders and Lions kick off in Detroit tonight at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT). It’s available to watch nationally on Fox.
