Mikaela Worley, fiancée of Washington Commanders safety Jeremy Reaves, shared a glimpse into the excitement following the team's shocking playoff victory over the Detroit Lions. Taking to Instagram, the 26-year-old showcased a joyous watch party, where she and fellow WAGs celebrated the Commanders’ 45-31 triumph on January 19.
The Instagram video, captioned "Spend 15 seconds with us watching our men advance to the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP🏈❤️💛," captured the euphoric moments of high-fives, cheers, and collective elation. Another line summed up their emotions: "We’re headed to the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP BABY!!!!"
While some fans wondered why she hadn’t attended the game in person, Worley clarified in the comments, “There were no flights home tonight or in the morning so a group of us decided to watch from home😊.”
The Commanders' victory shocked the
NFL
world. Entering as underdogs, they defeated the NFC’s top-seeded Lions, who had been favored for a Super Bowl run after a dominant season. Lions coach Dan Campbell could only watch as Washington dismantled their playoff hopes at Ford Field. The win propels the Commanders to their first NFC Championship appearance since 1991, a season that culminated in a Super Bowl victory.
The celebration marked another joyous milestone for Worley and Reaves, following their engagement just weeks earlier. Reaves proposed to Worley after the Commanders’ December 29 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. In a video shared by the NFL, the 28-year-old safety dropped to one knee as fans cheered. The NFL captioned the clip, “Post-clinch proposal! A moment they’ll never forget 💍🥹.”
Reaves later shared in an interview how the proposal hinged on the game’s outcome. “There’s no way I could have done that in the right spirit after a loss,” he admitted. Reaves expressed deep admiration for Worley, describing her as his pillar of strength during tough times.
“She’s earned it. I can’t say enough about her,” Reaves shared. Reflecting on her unwavering support during his recovery from an ACL tear, he added, “You can tell a lot about somebody when they are going through the worst and how they handle it.” He credited Worley for being his “crutch” during his most challenging moments, emphasizing, “That’s my best friend. Been my best friend since high school.”
