Washington Commanders coach Dan Quinn continues to love what he's seen from rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. But there's one exception: Quinn wants him to slide more.

That was evident in Saturday's 13-6 preseason loss to the Miami Dolphins. On a first-quarter zone read keeper around right end, Daniels picked up 13 yards but rather than slide he continued forward and got tackled from behind.

After the game Quinn told reporters -- with a nod to the movie Animal House -- that Daniels was on "double secret probation" because he didn't slide on the play.
