Nabers and Thomas were in attendance in support of Daniels, per TMZ Sports. Nabers posted a celebratory post on TikTok in honor of Daniels after the game.
“Roll ’em 5’s out,” Nabers said in the video from the stands, imitating a craps player rolling dice.
According to TMZ, the trio hooked up after the game “outside the stadium postgame to grab a quick flick before the 24-year-old signal caller turned his attention to next week’s date with the Detroit Lions.”
Daniels threw for 268 yards and two scores while rushing for 36 yards on the night. As a rookie, Daniels was named to the 2025 Pro Bowl Games. All three former Tigers were named to the 2024 All-Rookie Team.
