Parsons criticises Daniels over Commanders tie that may cost Quinn job

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 02:08 · Archive

Micah Parsons said Jayden Daniels's overtime sack probably cost Dan Quinn his Commanders coaching job after a Week 5 tie with the Giants.

Micah Parsons said Jayden Daniels 'probably cost' Dan Quinn his job as Washington Commanders head coach after a botched final play in overtime against the New York Giants on Sunday. With 50 seconds left in overtime and the score tied at 27, the Commanders reached the Giants' 24-yard line. The team was slow getting off the next play, wasting 12 seconds, and Daniels scrambled before being sacked with eight seconds remaining. The Commanders showed no sense of urgency getting back to the line and were unable to spike the ball to get their field goal unit onto the field, resulting in a 27-27 tie.

Parsons, a Green Bay Packers edge rusher and former Dallas Cowboys teammate of Quinn's, made his criticism during the latest episode of 'The Edge with Micah Parsons' podcast. 'Jayden Daniels probably cost my man Dan Quinn his job,' Parsons said. 'I'm a big Jayden Daniels fan, but the reality is he probably cost a lot of people their jobs this past weekend.' He added that such situations are heavily coached at the professional level and that taking a sack with no timeouts remaining should never happen.

Dan Quinn's job security was already under scrutiny before the game. The loss left the Commanders at 1-3-1 in the season, and Quinn threw his headset down on the sideline, apparently aware that his team should have won and that questions about his position would intensify.
