Commanders Stun, Eliminate Lions 45-31

The Detroit Lions’ greatest season ever is over. The Washington Commanders had every answer Saturday night.

The Lions turned the ball four times, including a fumble and pick-six from Jared Goff and a trick play that ended with a season-crushing Jameson Williams interception, as Jayden Daniels and the Commanders silenced the Ford Field crowd in a shocking 45-31 upset.

Washington (14-5) moves onto the NFC championship game next Sunday for the first time since 1991, at either the Philadelphia Eagles or Los Angeles Rams.

The Lions (15-3) go home after a best-ever 15-2 regular season and their first-ever No. 1 seed. A win would have given them their first chance to host an NFC title game. They are only NFC team never to reach the Super Bowl.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts Is The Highest Paid NFL Player

The Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a massive contract extension for star quarterback Jalen Hurts, giving him a new deal for five years and a whopping $255 million, according to multiple reports, making him the highest-paid player in NFL history at an average of $51 million per year.

The contract includes $179.3 million in guarantees and a no-trade clause.

Hurts, 24, had a dominant season for the Eagles in 2022, helping lead Philadelphia to the Super Bowl.

The NFC Pro Bowler passed for 3,701 yards, 22 touchdowns and six interceptions in the regular season, while also adding 760 yards rushing and 13 TDs on the ground.

The Alabama and Oklahoma product also had a sensational Super Bowl, completing 71 percent of his passes for 301 yards and a touchdown with no turnovers in the game – which the Eagles barely lost to the Chiefs, 38-35.

Hulk Hogan Talks Politics on FOX News

WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan hinted at possibly serving a role in President-elect Donald Trump‘s cabinet during an appearance on FOX News.

“You know something, you’d be great to run the President’s Council on Physical Fitness,” Trump told Hogan backstage at Madison Square Garden during Trump’s sold out rally.

“I was talking about nutrition and how many foreign countries won’t even let their people eat the food that we eat here in America,” Hogan said.

“It’s so bad and it’s poisoned a generation of kids,’ he added. “And at the end of the day, we started talking about physical fitness.”

Hogan claimed Trump suggested he’d be a great fit for the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition.

“And it would be great if you got all the kids in America in shape,” Hogan said.
