Giants Fall To Commanders, 21-18

Jayden Daniels got the wind knocked out of him, missed a snap and came back like nothing went wrong. He led the Washington Commanders down the field over and over without a touchdown to show for it and made sure they still put points on the board.

When it mattered most, Daniels got the job done and picked up his first win as an NFL quarterback, beating the New York Giants 21-18 on Sunday thanks to a franchise-record seven field goals from new kicker Austin Seibert.

Daniels engineered the go-ahead, 65-yard drive in the final minutes to get the ball into the red zone, setting up Seibert’s 30-yard field goal that won it as the clock expired. Seibert’s 7-for-7 performance came days after he replaced Cade York, who missed each of his two attempts in the season opener.

The Commanders (1-1) came back to win an ugly game after the Giants lost kicker Graham Gano to an injury on the opening kickoff. Not having Gano forced New York (0-2) to go for it on several fourth-down situations after punter Jamie Gillan missed an extra point attempt early.

Giants QB Daniel Jones, who after a rough Week 1 went a respectable 16 of 28 for 178 yards and two touchdown passes. 

Charlotte Flair Expected Back in WWE Soon

The top star continues documenting her journey to returning to in-ring action on social media. She is focused on getting back to performing in front of fans as soon as possible.

Flair has been sidelined since she tore her ACL, MCL, and meniscus in December on WWE SmackDown in a match with Asuka. The nasty moment happened as Flair did a spot in the corner, seemingly twisted when falling, and immediately grabbed her knee.

After the surgery, she has been rehabbing and documenting her progress. Flair recently took to her Instagram Story to share in-ring training footage from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, FL, which gave fans hope about her return.

The former WWE Women’s Champion’s current timetable for return is November.
