Jameis Winston used “Who Let the Dogs Out?” as a late-game snap count against Washington on Thursday night, Awful Announcing reports. The booth laughed; the Commanders were a tougher crowd. Source
The Giants led by four with fewer than four minutes remaining and faced fourth-and-1 deep in their own territory, according to the outlet. A tense situation for a musical number. Source
The Athletic described Winston’s cadence as an attempt to draw Washington offside, while Awful Announcing left open the possibility of a trick play. Source Source
In Awful Announcing’s transcription, Winston moved from “Get ready, get set, hut one, hut two, hut three” to “Who let the dogs out.” Source
Prime Video announcers Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit both broke into laughter, according to the same account. Michaels exclaimed, “You gotta be kidding me!” while Herbstreit asked, “What is he doing?” Source
Washington didn’t jump offside. New York took a delay-of-game penalty and then punted. Source
