Troy Aikman gets shout out from Rams WR’s “swimmer” sister Ocean Landman after HOF QB’s MNF mention goes viral

ESPN announcer Troy Aikman gave a special shout-out to LA Rams linebacker Nate Landman's sister, Ocean, during the team's 27-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 17 on Monday Night Football. After praising Landman for forcing an incompletion from Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins in the first half at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Aikman mentioned how the Ocean, who was a swimmer at Oregon, has one of the most unique names.

"He likes being called Landman," Aikman said. "Great show, great linebacker, great name. I mean, it just all ties together. The interesting thing- guess what his sister's name is? Ocean Landman, and she was a swimmer at Oregon State. So there you go."

When Ocean caught wind of Aikman's comments about her name, she flaunted it on her Instagram story.
