Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels sent out a prayer and it was answered.
Daniels' Hail Mary touchdown pass to Noah Brown gave the Commanders an 18-15 victory over the Chicago Bears on Sunday night. It was by far one of the most exciting passes of the season.

Daniels spoke about the play with CBS's Tracy Wolfson.
“Nothing but God, man. Nothing but God,” Daniels said. “Without Him I don't think I'd be playing this week. But man, all glory to God.”
It was a matter of chance whether Daniels would take the field for the Week 8 game. He injured his ribs in the team's win over the Carolina Panthers and did not play the rest of the game. The R&R throughout the week helped him prepare for the Bears and he delivered in a key moment.

Daniels' pass fell into Brown's hands for the win.
“I was excited for sure,” he said after the game. “I'm excited because it's like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Not many people get to experience things like that. That was my first time.”
Daniels was 21-for-38 with 326 passing yards and the game-winning touchdown pass.
“We're lucky to have the '5' leading this team – the things he can do are special,” Brown said. “I wouldn't want to play with any other quarterback.”
