STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Okonkwo targeted on final play but short pass prevented end-zone opportunity.

Chig Okonkwo was targeted on the Commanders' final play in Week 9 with three seconds remaining and the team down 20-13 at the Rams' 31-yard line. Daniels threw him a short pass, and Okonkwo advanced to around the 10-yard line before attempting a lateral to a teammate. The play failed to result in a score, and the Commanders fell to 2-5-1. While Okonkwo was the target on the final play, the source indicates the issue was the short pass rather than Okonkwo's execution.
