Two things:
they used the 33 because it is the only retired Redskin number so it can't be an active player. You never know when you're going to have to sign a guy on Tuesday to play on Sunday and this way it will never be a guy on the roster no matter how long the commercial runs.
Second, the commercial was made before the tragedy. And, maybe I'm wrong, but didn't Landry land that hit against the Eagles in the 4th quarter earlier this season?
Great commercial I just don't think it was designed as a tribute to Sean.
