Week 3 of the NFL season features a Monday Night Football doubleheader. First, the Jacksonville Jaguars take on the Buffalo Bills beginning at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN. At 8:15 p.m. ET on ABC, the Washington Commanders take on the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Commanders-Bengals game will feature something NFL fans haven’t seen in decades: a showdown between two former LSU quarterbacks. Cincinnati’s Joe Burrow won the Heisman Trophy and national championship with the Tigers in 2019. Washington rookie Jayden Daniels won the Heisman in 2023 before going second overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Those games featured former Tigers Bert Jones and David Woodley, who started for Baltimore and Miami, respectively. The two played each other four times between 1980 and 1981, with Miami winning three of the games. In the nearly 43 years since then, the NFL has not seen two former Tiger quarterbacks face off against each other.
