Former UNC football standout Dyami Brown scored his first two NFL touchdowns on Sunday afternoon against the Tennessee Titans.

Dyami Brown had just two catches in the Washington Commanders’ Week 5 contest against the Tennessee Titans, but both were very big plays in the game.

With the Commanders trailing 7-3, Carson Wentz connected with the former UNC football standout for a 75-yard score, the first touchdown of Brown’s NFL career.

If you happened to miss it, here’s the highlight:

In the third quarter, with his team trailing once again, Brown gave the Commanders another lead with this highlight reel catch.

Brown fought off the defender to make a special one-handed grab. Given how nice the catch was, we think you should see it from another angle as well!

Even though four Commanders had more receptions than him, Brown led the team with 105 yards and the aforementioned two touchdown receptions. Coming into today’s contest, the former Tar Heel had just one reception for six total yards so far this season.

Heading into this contest, Brown had yet to showcase the talent that made him a household name in Chapel Hill. Maybe this game will serve as Brown’s coming out party, as the Commanders could really benefit offensively if he could continue to be a deep threat for Wentz and company to work with as the season moves along.
