On this high-stakes play, Sean Davis lines up as the lone halfback behind quarterback Brad Johnson. As the Redskins look to re-take the lead, Davis releases from the backfield and cuts sharply across the middle, slipping into space ten yards downfield. About ten yards downfield, Johnson delivers a strike, hitting Davis just as he clears into the second level of the defense. The timing is perfect — Davis doesn’t break stride as he secures the catch.
With the end zone in sight and playoff hopes on the line, Davis turns on the jets. He outruns the final defenders and crosses the goal line untouched — a game-winning touchdown that puts Washington ahead late and secures a postseason berth. It’s a play built on timing, poise, and explosive finishing ability. In a clutch moment, Davis delivers — not just a score, but a season-defining exclamation point.
