Cameras caught Caleb Williams’ priceless reaction to Jayden Daniels’ game-winning Hail Mary touchdown pass to Noah Brown at the end of the Chicago Bears-Washington Commanders game on Sunday.

The first showdown between Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels, the top two picks of the 2024 NFL Draft, did not disappoint. Roschon Johnson seemingly won the game for the visitors when he scored a go-ahead touchdown with only 23 ticks remaining.

But 23 seconds and no timeouts proved to be more than enough time for Daniels, who put a cherry on top of his thrilling rookie season by throwing the game-winning touchdown to Brown on the game’s final play:

So, how did Caleb Williams react to Daniels’ jaw-dropping play? Cameras caught it all:


Losing on a miracle play is always hard to stomach, but this is especially a big mid-season blow to the Bears. There’s a huge difference between 5-2 and 4-3, and now they sit last in the gauntlet that is the NFC North division.

The Bears will be kicking themselves for giving up that game-winning play, but Williams and the Chicago offense must take responsibility as well. They mustered only 307 yards of offense on 60 plays and were shut out in the first half.

This was a case of waiting too long to get it going offensively. If the Bears figured it out on that side of the ball much earlier, they wouldn’t have lost on a miracle play.
