Commanders’ ‘Hail Maryland’ Hero Signs With AFC Team

Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Noah Brown has signed with the Las Vegas Raiders, it was announced on Sunday. Brown is best known for his performance on a famous last-minute touchdown pass to give the Washington Commanders a 18-15 victory over the Chicago Bears in a regular-season game in 2024, a play dubbed the "Hail Maryland" or "Miracle in Maryland."

Brown played just 10 snaps in the Commanders' final 5 games of the 2025 season due to knee and groin injuries, and was placed on season-ending injured reserve on December 16. The Raiders and Commanders finalized the transaction in a corresponding move where they released defensive tackle Benito Jones.
