The team captured the reactions of their players on video. Rivera took the role of breaking the news to the next level.

Wary players who were anticipating something negative received the best surprise.

The joy on Reaves’ face and his teary reaction was enough to make grown adults cry. But why did the NFL world react this way?

Jeremy Reaves’ road to the top was not a smooth ride

Ron Rivera may not receive the Oscar Award for Best Actor but he deserves to be ‘Coach of the Year’ because of the way he broke the news to his players. Terry McLaurin, Jonathan Allen, and Tress Way were given the good news of their selection first. The players shook hands with their coach, looking around with a mix of ecstasy and disbelief. But it was Jeremy Reaves’ reaction that had fans bawling.

Reaves’ rise to the status of a Pro Bowler was quite the uphill battle. Former Commanders offensive lineman Ross Tucker tweeted the special teamer’s professional history that caused a whole thread of stunned reactions.

After going undrafted, exiting the Eagles squad, and awaiting his turn while on the Commanders’ practice squad, Reaves made it to the team’s main roster this season. Amidst all of this, the 26-year-old lost his mother last year. Reaves has previously mentioned that she was his “biggest fan.” This is perhaps one of the reasons why his teammates were happier for his success than their own. Moments like these are special and an example of how the sport brings out emotion like no other.
