Washington Commanders end Baltimore Ravens’ preseason win streak at 24 games

 

WASHINGTON COMMANDER– The least important winning streak in American professional sports has ended.

 

 

 

Washington Commanders kicker Joey Slye drilled a 49-yard field goal with nine seconds left to give his team a 29-28 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, which entered Monday’s game having won 24 straight preseason games dating back to 2016.

 

 

 

 

Washington came one yard from tying the game at 28 with four minutes remaining, but Ravens cornerback Kyu Kelly stonewalled Commanders fullback Alex Armah after he caught a pass in the flat from third-string quarterback Jake Fromm to thwart the Commanders’ two-point conversion.

The Ravens, with quarterback Anthony Brown Jr. leading the way, couldn’t run out the clock. Washington faced a 4th-and-11 on their own side of the field with 69 seconds remaining and were bailed out by a pass interference call that kept the drive alive.

 

Fromm and Kazmeir Allen connected for the final eight yards to bring Slye’s attempt within a manageable range.

“We were just grinding, scrapping, clawing,” Fromm told USA TODAY Sports 

With his focus on figuring out where the Ravens’ pressure was coming from, Fromm said he wasn’t thinking much about putting a stake through their streak. But Baltimore head coach John Harbaugh said that those who considered the streak a collection of meaningless victories has it all wrong.

“Because you never played,” Harbaugh said. “You were never out there in a preseason game. You were never fighting for a spot. And then you have the audacity to say that the effort somebody puts in to fight and win a game like that is meaningless.”

There’s no one reason the streak lasted as long as it did, Harbaugh said. It’s a reflection of how the organization practices, holds meetings, develops young players and scouts the collegiate and pro game for depth pieces.

 

 

“In the end, it’s about football and the men — and women now — who play the game. It shows you why this game is so great, why it matters so much,” Harbaugh said. “Because it takes those kinds of efforts. It’s a game of courageous people and it’s a game for people who are willing to throw themselves around in tough, awkward situations. Physicality. It takes that kind of grit to play this game, fight like that. Most people who love football love it for that reason right there. They respect what it takes to play the game.”

 

 

It was a battle of first-round draft picks during the game’s first drive, with Ravens wideout Zay Flowers (22nd overall) and Commanders cornerback Emmanuel Forbes (16th overall), lining up across from one another. Flowers hauled in his first target for an 11-yard catch, then found plenty of open grass on a play action pass he took 26 yards to the house later in the drive for his first professional touchdown.

 

 

 

Commanders quarterback Sam Howell, named the starter Friday, went 19-for-25 with 188 yards and two touchdowns — both within the final two minutes of the first half. Washington coach Ron Rivera kept his offensive starters in for the game’s first 30 minutes, and not without risk; wide receiver Terry McLaurin grimaced while leaving the field with a toe injury.

 

 

 

“It’s really not a real game,” Howell said, “but at the same time, whatever team you’re on, you want to win.

“It was so much fun to watch and be a part of.”

Ravens tight end Travis Vokolek, an undrafted rookie from Nebraska, caught two touchdowns in the second half.

Baltimore assumed the record for most consecutive preseason victories since 2021, when they won their 20th consecutive game to supplant the 1959-1962 Green Bay Packers (under legendary coach Vince Lombardi) from having the most prolific stretch of preseason dominance.

Monday’s game carried an air of familiarity, as the teams held a pair of joint practices at the Ravens’ facility in Owings Mills, Maryland, last week. The latter practice featured a pair of fights between Washington’s offensive line and the Ravens’ defensive front, and that bad blood carried over.

Court Summons Doris Ogala Over False Allegations Against Dr. Chris Okafor

Court Summons Doris Ogala Over False Allegations Against Dr. Chris Okafor

 

Contrary to the narrative actress Doris Ogala has sought to project on social media, the General Overseer of Greater Liberation City, Dr. Chris Okafor, is not behind her recent invitation or attempted arrest by law enforcement authorities.

 

Rather, sources indicate that the actress is being sought in connection with a pending criminal suit instituted against her by the Federal Government of Nigeria before the Federal High Court, Lagos Judicial Division, over allegations linked to her social media publications concerning the cleric.

The case, filed as Charge No. FHC/L/2/220C/2026 – Federal Republic of Nigeria v. Doris Ogala, is said to be before Honourable Justice Aluko.

 

According to sources familiar with the matter, officers of the Nigerian Police Force, Zone 2 Headquarters, Onikan, Lagos, attempted to reach Ogala because she was scheduled for arraignment on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, and remains on administrative bail.

“The officers only sought to serve the defendant with the charge and ensure her appearance before the court,” a source disclosed.

 

Court documents reveal that the Federal Government has filed a four-count charge against Ogala bordering on alleged cyberstalking, dissemination of false information, harassment, and attempted extortion under the Cybercrimes (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Amendment Act, 2024.

The charges include allegations that she:

Published nude and intimate photographs of Dr. Chris Okafor without consent;

Made and disseminated allegations accusing the pastor of rape, ritual practices, and involvement in a death;

Published videos and electronic messages allegedly intended to harass, bully, and intimidate him;

Allegedly threatened continued publication of damaging materials unless compensated or provided with a house.

 

A source close to the matter insisted that Dr. Chris Okafor is not orchestrating the legal action and has no direct involvement in the prosecution beyond being the nominal complainant.

“Sadly, rather than addressing the issues before the court, Doris continues to drag Pastor Chris Okafor into the matter publicly,” the source said.

 

“The simple position is that whoever makes allegations must be prepared to substantiate them in court. That is all the court requires. Pastor Chris Okafor has moved on and is not pursuing any personal vendetta. She is the one who must answer to the law.”

 

The development underscores what insiders describe as a legal process driven by the state and not by personal influence, despite attempts to portray the matter otherwise online.
