Magic Johnson critical of Commanders 'poor clock management' after tie vs Giants

Minority owner Magic Johnson wasn't pulling any punches after the Commanders' tie against the Giants.

Magic Johnson, the NBA legend and minority owner of the Washington Commanders, expressed dissatisfaction with the team's performance during their tie game against the New York Giants on Sunday. Johnson, who often praised the team's achievements in the past, took to X to criticize the Commanders' clock management skills during overtime.

He expressed disbelief that the team had to resort to calling a play with only seconds remaining on the clock, resulting in a fumble and a lost game for the Commanders. Johnson's comments suggest he is unhappy with the coaching decisions made by head coach Dan Quinn and quarterback Jayden Daniels, who was visibly frustrated by the poor clock management during the game.

While Johnson did not name any specific individuals, his criticism of the team's performance has likely drawn attention from the team's primary owner, Josh Harris.
