The Commanders didn’t hold a kicker tryout earlier this week after they cut Cade York. They quickly signed Austin Seibert. They knew about him from the joint practice and preseason game with the Jets.

Jayden Daniels said he feels fine despite missing one play after taking a hit to his side. Seemed to infer he had the wind knocked out of him.

“Nah, not at all. Just call the game. Defense dictates what we do, and I’m just going out there and playing football”

– Daniels, when asked about if the offense is relying on him running too much

— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) September 15, 2024

“Y’all seen it today. BRob did his thing. Ekeler did his thing. Having those two in the backfield with me… we got two guys who can take a 2 yard run and take it 60”

Daniels, when asked about the RBs.

— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) September 15, 2024

Jayden Daniels said he and Malik Nabers swapped jerseys after the game. Daniels got his first win, Nabers got his first 100-yard game.

It certainly wasn’t pretty, but Commanders TE Zach Ertz is happy with the first win of the season.

Austin Siebert showed up this week and kicked 7 Fg pic.twitter.com/p6nxPXAILt

— George Wallace (@GWallaceWTOP) September 15, 2024

Austin Seibert said he’s never kicked 7 FGs in a game at any level.

He credits (in part) a pine tree. He doesn’t go to a field to practice. With the help of his wife and daughter, he kicks routine at the pine tree. So before the 7th kick, he just told himself to kick at the…

Siebert praising Dan Quinn’s positivity. Said it’s the best work environment he’s been in.
