The winning locker room is always a lively place to be after a game. For the Washington Commanders, their 32-21 win over the previously unbeaten Philadelphia Eagles led to plenty of dancing and singing in the locker room.
Head coach Ron Rivera spoke to his team after the win. His team awarded him a game ball. Rivera recently lost his mother and was in California last week for her services. Clearly fighting back emotions, Rivera attempted to speak to his team before walking off.
Wide receiver Terry McLaurin took it from there, giving a speech to his teammates, and they were fired up.

The team was clearly enjoying this win.
It is an indescribable party in the Commanders locker room right now. Lots of players standing on stools dancing. Loud singing. They are enjoying this win.

John Keim of ESPN has been covering the franchise for many years, and added the following.
Not sure I’ve been in a more celebratory locker room in a while. They’re dancing. Singing. It’s a scene man

Finally, former Washington linebacker London Fletcher, now a team broadcaster, caught it all on camera.
