It was a watch party to remember for the wives and girlfriends of the Commanders.
Shortly after the Commanders stunned the top-seeded Lions on Saturday with a thrilling 45-31 road win in the divisional round, Mikaela Worley — newly engaged to safety Jeremy Reaves — gave fans a peek at the WAGs’ celebrations from home in a new Instagram video.
Worley and the group can be seen jumping up and down and high-fiving one another while toasting Washington’s first NFC Championship berth in 33 years during a video captioned, “We’re headed to the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP BABY!!!!”
Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels completed 22-of-31 attempts for 299 yards and two touchdowns as the sixth-seeded Commanders took down the NFC’s No. 1 seed.
“He has a different poise,” Washington coach Dan Quinn said of Daniels, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. “He’s a rare competitor.”
Washington will face the winner of Sunday’s divisional matchup between the second-seeded Eagles and the No. 4 seed Rams in Philadelphia.
It’s been a wild few weeks for Worley, a physician assistant, and Reaves, 28.
When the Commanders clinched a playoff spot on Dec. 29 with a 30-24 overtime win against the Falcons, the Pro Bowl safety proposed to Worley near the end zone at Northwest Stadium in Maryland.
“I hate losing, so there’s no way I could have done that in the right spirit after a loss,” Reaves said, according to ESPN.
“That thing was burning a hole in my pocket.”
Reaves, who has played for Washington since 2018, said Worley has been his “best friend since high school.”
“She’s earned it. I can’t say enough about her. When I was at my lowest last year, she was there to pick me up every day. She showed up. That’s my best friend,” he added.
Worley welcomed 2025 with a new ring, and perhaps a ring is in the cards for Reaves this year.
