Video: Jayden Daniels Compares Hail Mary TD vs. Bears to Kobe Bryant's Final NBA Game

Washington Commanders rookie Jayden Daniels is likely on his way to the Offensive Rookie of the Year and the playoffs in his first NFL season, and one play has stood out above the rest through the team's first 14 games.

Daniels' 52-yard Hail Mary pass to Noah Brown on the final play of Washington's 18-15 victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 8 sent both teams on opposite trajectories and stunned the NFL world.

The quarterback had quite the answer when asked to compare the play to something else during a series of questions from Kevin Durant and Travis Scott for Boardroom (10:56 mark):

"For me personally, I'll say the Hail Mary and how it ended, it's kind of equivalent to when Kobe dropped 60 in his last game," Daniels said.
