“Roll’em 5’s out,” Nabers said in a video from the stand, imitating a craps player rolling dice.
According to TMZ, the three “hooked up outside the stadium for a quick film after the game before the 24-year-old signal caller turned his attention to a date with the Detroit Lions next week.”
Daniels threw for 268 yards and two scores on the night, along with 36 yards rushing. As a rookie, Daniels was named to the 2025 Pro Bowl Games. All three former Tigers were named to the 2024 All-Rookie team.
