  "account": "On Sunday, Washington Commanders safety Tyler Owens displayed a special-teams performance so remarkable that it went viral on social media. During the Commanders' Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Owens showcased his defensive prowess, dominating two Eagles players en route to stopping Philadelphia's punt return. NFL legend JJ Watt declared it \"one of the greatest football plays I've ever seen,\" while Pat McAfee, a former NFL punter, praised Owens on his Monday show. Other former NFL players were equally impressed, appreciating the physicality of Owens' play in an era when such intensity is often lacking. Washington head coach Dan Quinn praised Owens' play, calling it one of his proudest contributions to the team. The clip has since been viewed by fans and analysts alike, with many calling it an all-time special teams performance.",
