Head coach Dan Quinn of the Washington Commanders
Jayden Daniels is quickly solidifying his place in NFL history. The Washington Commanders’ rookie quarterback has become the first player in league history to surpass 1,000 passing yards and 250 rushing yards in his first five career games. This remarkable achievement highlights the versatility and explosive playmaking ability that made him the No. 2 overall pick in this year’s draft.
In the first half against the Cleveland Browns, Daniels threw for 166 yards and added 48 rushing yards, helping Washington jump out to a commanding 24-3 halftime lead. His dual-threat skillset continues to give opposing defenses nightmares, and his early success is fueling the Commanders’ strong start to the season.
Washington fans have plenty to be excited about, as Daniels is proving to be not only the future of the franchise but also a potential game-changer for the entire NFL. His record-breaking performances show no signs of slowing down, and with each passing week, he’s rewriting what a rookie quarterback can achieve. Keep an eye on Daniels as he continues to build his already historic career.
