Jameis Winston shouted a Baha Men lyric at FedExField on Friday creating an unexpected moment during the Washington Commanders’ 24-21 win over the New York Giants, SportNews.bz reported.
During a short-yardage appearance for the Giants, backup quarterback Jameis Winston attempted to disrupt the Washington defensive front by screaming the chorus to the 2000 hit song “Who Let the Dogs Out?” at the top of his lungs, according to SportNews.bz. He followed the chant with a sharp “Who, who, who, who!” that mimicked standard pre-snap cadence calls.
The audio captured on the field drew widespread attention online after the league’s official social media account highlighted the sequence. ““Si vous n’écoutez rien d’autre aujourd’hui, écoutez au moins le décompte précis de Jameis Winston ici mdr 😂””, the NFL posted on X alongside the video clip.
Despite the audible disruption, the Washington defense held firm and forced New York to punt the ball away. Stefon Diggs then caught the decisive touchdown pass in the final minute of regulation to put the Commanders ahead. An interception thrown by Giants quarterback JJ McCarthy subsequently sealed the home defeat for New York.
““We had the right attitude. We encountered some difficulties at the beginning, but we pulled ourselves together – and we have one of the best quarterbacks. As a team, we found the solution,”” Stefon Diggs told SportNews.bz after finishing the game with 83 receiving yards and one touchdown.
The victory marks just the third win of the season for the Commanders, keeping their slim postseason hopes alive within the NFC East division. New York currently holds a two-game cushion over Washington with eight weeks of regular-season play remaining. Cam Skattebo scored two touchdowns for the Giants in the losing effort.
