Dyami Brown got his first taste of NFL Playoff action on Sunday night, making the absolute most of his opportunity.
The former UNC football standout scored the first touchdown of the game in the second quarter, one that gave the Washington Commanders the lead. He connected with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, as the first round pick found a wide open Brown in the back of the end zone.

Brown wasn't done, as he made some big-time plays throughout the game. With the scored knotted up at 20, Brown made this big-time catch, one that helped the Commanders drive down the field to get into field goal range to win the game.
Have a Dyam day, Dyami Brown!

Oh, and let's not forget this truck stick that the former Tar Heel laid on a Tampa Bay Buccaneers defender.

What a breakout
This was a breakout performance for Dyami Brown, and it simply couldn't have come at a better time. Washington has not won a playoff game prior to Sunday night since 2006, as Brown's outstanding effort helped make history for a franchise looking to turn things around.
