Jayden Daniels Sharp In First Taste Of Professional Football
3 months ago

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels looked sharp in his lone possession in his first professional game on Saturday afternoon. The number-two overall pick in this year's draft got things started with a 42-yard pass to wide receiver Dyami Brown on their first third down to move the Commanders into opposing territory. He then completed a short pass to Terry McLaurin for three yards before letting his two running backs, Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler, bring the Commanders into the red zone. The former LSU Tiger then capped the drive off by taking the ball into the end zone himself on a three-yard rush. This was a great debut for the reigning Heisman winner, as he was able to show off both his legs and his arm as well. Last season at LSU, the 23-year-old threw for 3,812 yards while tallying 1,134 on the ground. Daniels is a great upside pick with a current Yahoo ADP of 109.8, given his elite rushing ability.
