The Commanders walked away with a 17-16 victory, moving them to an even 4-4 record this season.

Despite his heroics on the field, McLaurin gave God the glory and thanked his teammates.

“God is good, man. He’s been so faithful in my life, and His mercy is the reason why I’m standing here before you guys,” the 27-year-old receiver said after the game.

Coaches and teammates also awarded McLaurin the game ball.

Upon receiving a contract extension with the Commanders for the 2022 season, McLaurin said that he saw the opportunity as a chance to serve God.

“I am thankful to serve a God who has granted me endless grace and mercy,” he wrote on social media after the renewed contract. “He is the reason I am standing here today. Without him, I do not know where I would be. I am excited to see what he has in store for me and how he will use my testimony for his goodness.”
